2009 Riesling Loibner Steinertal Smaragd, F.X.Pichler

2009 Riesling Loibner Steinertal Smaragd, F.X.Pichler

Cool and lean in style, yet retaining the density and length of a great vintage. With notes of grapefruit and pepper on the nose, this is juicy and full of energy on the palate. It also has a stony quality that is reminiscent of a rich Mosel wine. This is a lovely wine, which will deliver greatness with bottle age.

Weingut F.X. Pichler

Based in Austria’s most prestigious region, the Wachau, F.X. Pichler are one of the world’s foremost producers of Riesling and Grüner Veltliner. Franz Xaver (the eponymous F.X.) inherited the estate in 1971, and was instrumental in the rise to prominence of both his family’s winery and the Wachau. His son Lucas (the fifth generation) now makes the wine, but F.X. is still an active presence in the vineyards.
