2023 Riesling Smaragd Singerriedel Franz Hirtzberger

Falstaff 99, medium green-yellow, silver reflections. Delicate nuances of vineyard peach, a hint of meadow herbs, hints of yellow apple, mineral touch, still a little shy. Firm, tight-knit, elegant, fine fruit of stone fruit, fine acidity, delicate hint of pineapple, mineral and very long-lasting, delicate and light-footed, a very convincing style, enormous aging potential.

Suckling 100, An incredibly wide aromatic spectrum with all the stone and citrus fruits plus a slew of white flowers is married to an overwhelming freshness and vitality that sweeps you away. Fabulous concentration, focus and finesse. The supercool, bright finish echoes almost endlessly. Drink or hold.
