How do you begin to describe a wine like this, which busts apart the usual frames of reference for dry white wine? So many fresh aromas - from white peaches through mint to Amalfi lemons - but so much ripeness and concentration, too. The finish is super long and so delicate, in spite of all the power. Drink or hold.
The 2017 Ried Kellerberg Riesling Smaragd is very clear, fine and, in a subtle way, intense on the mineral and crystalline nose. Precise! It's rich and powerful but elegant and fine on the palate, and it has enormous power and concentration in the finish. This is a great and persistent Kellerberg with enormous intensity. Tasted in Oberloiben/Wachau, September 2018.
