(F.X. Pichler Riesling Smaragd Loibner Berg) ($78) Medium green-yellow. Attractive, uniquely spicy bouquet of plum, peach, anise, caraway and honey. Flavors of pineapple, grapefruit and lichee are carried by a brilliant acid structure, which lends this medium-to-full-bodied riesling a juicy mouthfeel. Elegant and already offering plenty of drinking pleasure, this superb wine shows excellent potential for aging. Drink 2010 to 2022. 94 points |
