Wieninger Riesling Vienna Hills 2018

Hints of spice and marzipan accompany the mandarin fruit of this ripe, rounded, linear but dry Riesling. There is quite some power here, you can feel the edges of heat. There is serious palate weight but ample fruit: of apricot and ripe citrus. 

Austrian Riesling is defined by elevated levels of dry extract thanks to a lengthy ripening period and freshness due to dramatic temperature swings between day and night. Austrian Riesling is always made in a dry style and shows aromas and flavors of ripe citrus, stone fruit, and flowers, with a persistent underpinning of minerality.
