An incredibly rare bottling from this prominent estate, the Auslese from Achleiten displays plenty of honey and spice with orange peel, fleshy peach and dried apricot notes. So luscious on the palate and incredibly concentrated.
With a clear, somewhat reductive and restrained nose of bright fruit and dark rock, Robert and Toni Bodenstein's 2021 Ried Achleiten Riesling Smaragd opens very concentrated but fresh. So too on the palate, which is crystalline, fresh and zesty but also very intense and complex. The persistent finish is powerful and still somewhat astringent. Again, this is a great Wachau Riesling from one of the proudest sites of the area. Tasted at Schloss Dürnstein, Wachau, in September 2022.
