Critic reviews
Robert Parker/Wine Advocate – “The 2021 Ried Singerriedel Riesling Smaragd displays dense, spicy and concentrated ripe fruit with savory rocky notes. Playful and elegant on the palate, this has ripe, concentrated and aromatic fruit with persistent length, not only structurally but also fruit-wise. This is an excellent, age-worthy Riesling from one of the DAC’s most famous vineyards. Tasted at Schloss Dürnstein, Wachau.” - Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate

Domäne Wachau Riesling ‘Singerriedl’ Smaragd 2021
Description
Description
The legendary Singerriedel vineyard yield wines of extraordinary finesse. The south-facing site is among the best sites in the world for exquisite white wines, located on steep, wind-protected terraces in the east of Spitz and is considered one of the best Riesling sites in the entire Wachau. The location saves the warmth of the autumn sun until late in the evening. Lying on the old paragneiss a narrow layer of the finest weathered soil with siliceous brown earth. Paragneiss arise from transformation of sedimentary rocks, hence their manifestations and their mineralogical composition in the Wachau vineyards is very diverse. After a few hours Maceration and fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine will continue for a few months of the fine lees to build texture and power. – Domäne Wachau

About Austrian Wine
Austria is a country with over 4000 years of wine making history, however, it unfortunately doesn't seem to enjoy the status and popularity that the high quality of it's wines deserve. Decades later, the country is still feeling the effects of a scandal in 1985 that destroyed its credibility at the time.
Grüner Veltliner is the most important wine made in Austria, distinguished by its lightly fruity, noticeable spice and characteristic white pepper notes. This variety comprises roughly a third of all plantings. In terms of volume, Riesling plays a much smaller role than in Germany, but is responsible for some of the most appreciated dry white wines made in the country.
In red varietals, Austrian native varieties are dominant and include the tart and peppery Zweigelt, spicy and dense Blaufränkisch and juicy Saint Laurent.
