2019 Riesling Schreck, Stadt Krems, Kremstal
Dry | White | Still | 14%
Schreck means fright in German, and takes its name from the watchmen who would scare away potential grape thieves. It’s an incredibly steep site, and in 2019 has crafted a layered, complex, and enduring Riesling. There’s a ripeness to the fruit, with notes of candied pineapple, and exotic spices. Quite a hedonistic wine, glorious in 2019.
Ready: 2022 - 2038
