2021 Riesling Ried Steinertal Smaragd, F.X.Pichler

The cool site accentuates the floral side of this Riesling with a mineral backbone and punchy acidity. White peach and citrus are layered with elements of the exotic with lime and pineapple. The palate finishes with a salinity that persists on the finish.

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.
