Alzinger Loibenberg Riesling Smaragd 2023

The 2023 Riesling Loibenberg Smaragd is picked in one parcel of poor soil that is steep and a complete suntrap that becomes shaded in the afternoon, mixing the warm site with a cooler element. Yeast and a touch of passion fruit foliage set the tone on the nose. The palate is a picture of slenderness, tautness, citric tension and freshness. A stony backdrop heightens that sleekness and has the name Alzinger printed all over it. Taut, fresh and zesty. (Bone-dry)

A supremely elegant Riesling, with a fresh bouquet of floral high tones and fleshy peach and apricot skin. Glides through, with its silky texture punctuated by a salty, mineral blast. Zesty and rich, with penetrating acidity and mineral depth. Drink now through 2032. 120 cases imported.
