For the Weinviertel region, this a daring and complex dry riesling that’s still slightly funky from long lees contact. The palate has some serious tannins, which may be too challenging if what you want is a fruity wine. However, there are attractive apricot and herbal notes, too. Powerful, dry finish. Better from 2019.

Notes
100% Riesling from the Auf der Henne site, which has vines of more than 30 years of age sitting on soils of white gravel. The fruit was selectively harvested by hand at the beginning of November 2016. It had a 12-hour maceration on the skins and was gently pressed before fermentation in stainless steel with vineyard yeasts. Aged for 10 months on full lees till bottling in September 2017. Alcohol 13%; residual sugar 13.1g/L; acidity 5.8g/L. The wine shows hints of white blossom, honey, citrus zest, hints of white peach and herbal notes. Juicy and mineral with sweet extract and stone fruit on the palate, with balanced acidity and a saline lick on the finish
