94 Punkte für Ried Käferberg Grüner Veltliner 2017

“A very shy nose gives a faint hint of dandelion blossom and butter. The palate continues with this rounded, ripe and smooth theme, bringing out even more butteriness but also a textured counterbalance of pithy concentration that tingles on the tongue with pepper and hay notes. Both citrus and rounded butteriness unite for a lasting, mellow, rich finish.”

95 Punkte für Ried Heiligenstein Riesling 2017

“Yeasty, reductive funk still dominates the nose and lets none of the fruit shine through—but is nonetheless promising. The mellow palate also showcases yeasty notes, but here they are salty and textural, mixed in with an apple and lemon freshness that draws attention to the concentration on the creamy, textured palate. This is a wine that still needs to come out of its shell, but what lies in wait is racy, zesty and interesting.”
