Beautifully aromatic notes of ripe Russet pear peel beckon on the nose. On the palate, this lovely fruit is joined by zesty pithiness with just an edge of pleasant bitterness that lends real grip amid the flowing, exuberant juiciness. It is the aromatic pear that owns the long finish. 93 points. Anne Krebiehl MW, Wine Enthusiast

Notes
The site was first documented as “Wartberg” in 1137, coming from the Middle High German: “Wait”. From the hill defenders could warn the city of Krems of approaching enemies earlier. The spelling Wachtberg can be found from 1689.
The mighty terraces of the Wachtberg climb to a height of 400m. The terroir is characterised by the deep loess soil in the lower plots as well as the iron-rich Danube gravel in the top plots. The weathered paragneiss forms the geological foundation of these soil types. Conditions are determined by the strong influence of the Pannonian climate. Fritz Miesbauer and the team at Weingut Stadt Krems farm 1.32Ha of Grüner Veltliner in this Erste Lage (Austrian grand cru).
The ripest grapes of 1ÖTW appellation Wachtberg make this Veltliner a complex and profound wine. Smoky nose, accompanied by some passion fruit and peach. The Wachtberg explodes from the first sip. Intense herbal spice, exotic fruits and a vibrant acidity revive the taste buds. Very elegant and juicy.
