Description
 
Founded in 1898, Pichler is one of the wineries that help put Austria on the world wine map. Their philosophy is to get the best out of the excellent potential nature offers us. A responsibility not only towards their family, but also towards nature, history and the wine, because the capital is the vineyards, the vines and the understanding gained from tradition in association with intuition and world-openness. What they want is to craft wines that reflect the year, the soil and the special microclimate of the Wachau. The subtle nuances of each single vineyard are to be experienced and tasted in their multi-layered uniqueness.

Lime and grapefruit; white peach, yellow plum, and gooseberry are mingled with salt and crushed stone in a lushly-textured Pichler 2010 Riesling Smaragd Loibenberg whose sense of finishing vivacity is accompanied by a very slight sense of sweet-tart bifurcation. (At 13.5% potential alcohol, Pichlers were inclined to pick for the sake of levity.) That said, with only a bit less focus and energy than the corresponding Steinertal, this certainly enervates the entire palate in a superbly tenacious finish. Look for ten or a dozen years of stimulation – and perhaps further complexity – here. WA93
