Riesling F.X. Pichler Loibner Oberhauser Smaragd 2010

The wine

This very polished Riesling is particularly prized for its delicate stone fruit (cherry plum) and aromatic herb aromas. Its mineral structure gives it length and impressive elegance. The wine is vinified in stainless steel to preserve the purity of its fruit. It will enhance white meat dishes and fish in creamy sauce to perfection.

About the Producer F.X. Pichler

The Kracher domaine has earned an international reputation for the quality and sophistication of its sweet wines and has become the standard bearer for Austrian vineyards. Three generations of winegrowers have worked since 1928 to produce consistently excellent sweet wines. It is located close to Neusiedl lake where the climate is propitious to the formation of noble rot. There is a wide range of wines and different vinifications are offered, even for wines of similar sweetness. The wines very clearly reflect the know-how handed down from one generation to the next with an enduring love of wine. They are all perfectly balanced, rich and wonderfully aromatic.
