Such a beaut! Lemon pith, green apple, kiwi, honeysuckle, white lilies. So supple but so bright!

Pichler wines need at least 5-6 years to show their stuff like this wine was, and it seems to have many years ahead. The fruit was broad and exotic with taut acidity...almost pineapple-y, but there's powerful mineral presence, fresh herbs and flowers in spades.

2013 vintage. Ripe but delicate, beautifully delineated, long and lovely to drink.

Hints of petrol, lime, green apple, pear, white flowers. The background with a pronounced mineral note.
For the most part a pure wine

Austria's icon and finest wine producer - FX Pichler. One of the top wineries in Austria, specifically located in the Wachau Valley. The winery itself was created on 1898. Of the 18 hectares owned by a family, almost a half are planted to Riesling, the rest is almost entirely Grüner Veltliner.
The wine:
Riesling Federspiel Loibner Burgstall
This wine is strong and clear, fruit-driven Riesling with mineral notes. Love it.

Floral notes almost jasmine-like on the nose. Acidity and minerality linger
