Weinrieder – Riesling 2016 Eiswein, Ried Schneiderberg – Niederösterreich

The nose is mineral and very slightly tight. The wine needs to be put in carafe. It reveals notes of lemon, crystallized apple and small notes of pineapple associated with small touches of racy minerality / flint as well as a subtle hint of kumquat, white flowers, spices, honey and an imperceptible hint of almond. The palate is fruity, elegant, gourmande, well-balanced and offers suavité, a beautiful roundness, a very fine tension, unctuosity, softness as well as a mineral frame. On the palate this wine expresses notes of candied lemon, candied quince and small notes of crushed peach associated with a touch of Williams pear, pineapple in syrup and subtle hints of minerality, honey, apricot dried and with an imperceptible hint of white flowers.
