IWC: By Peter Moser Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, November/December 2008, Issue #141 (Emmerich Knoll Riesling Smaragd Loibenberg) ($84) Pale yellow-green. A complex bouquet exhibits fully ripe yellow peach, intense mango and lime accompanied by flinty minerality. Complex and juicy in the mouth, with an apricot flavor framed by racy yet marvelously integrated acidity. Finishing flavors of lemon and wet dark slate linger impressively. This wine should benefit tremendously from further bottle aging and boasts terrific potential. Drink 2010 to 2022. 93 points |
