#10 James Suckling's Top 100 Wines of Austria 2021
So ripe, fragrant and delicate, this is a dry-riesling masterpiece that squares the circle of concentration and lightness, the palate a star-burst of stone and exotic-fruit aromas. And at the end, this pulls you straight back to the moment you discovered its ravishing beauty. Drink or hold.—James Suckling
The 2019 Ried Pfaffenberg Alte Reben Riesling is clear, elegant and intense on the nose, with crunchy flinty notes, lemon oil and ripe stone fruit aromas. Full-bodied, lush and intense, with rich and ripe fruit yet also finesse and mineral vitality, this is a complex and stimulatingly salty Pfaffenberg that was bottled with 13% alcohol in spring this year. Tasted at the domain in June 2021. .—Stephan Reinhardt, The Wine Advocate
