Erich is a very serious and talented winemaker in his own right, having inherited a great Blaufraenkisch vineyard in Suedburgenland from his family estate, Krutzler, where he was for several years the winemaker, and has had a couple of international award-winning projects in Slovenia.
This juicy and vibrant Riesling features aromas of passion fruit and lime zest with layers of floral and tropical notes. Fresh and lively this white wine offers complex flavors with a clean, crisp finish.
More complex flavors including honey and ripe tropical fruits are present with a well balanced sweetness. Soft citrus notes are peeking through and complement the balanced acidity in the wine.
The 2021 Ried Loibenberg Loibner Riesling Smaragd is deep intense and ripe on the nose but also pure and fresh with notes of crushed stones and tropical yellow stone fruits. Dense and intense on the substantial palate this is a full-bodied concentrated and sustainably structured Loibenberg with great intensity grip and mineral tension. The finish is very long intense and quite powerful and still dominated by its ripe fruit.
