 Tasted by LW31 on 11/30/2022: Quite dense Riesling with whiff of the exotic . Kind of wine you need the right food with. Good but not exciting. (308 views)
 Tasted by StainedGlass on 6/30/2021 & rated 93 points: This continues to be delightful. Rich, exotic (as one prior note observed), with excellent acidity. (144 views)
 Tasted by bjlcrucrazy on 11/8/2020 & rated 95 points: Stunning wine. Incredible Pairing with Pork tenderloin at the hunt Camp!!! (460 views)
 Tasted by StainedGlass on 8/23/2019 & rated 93 points: As Thierry Theise observed, this wine has "esoteric, exotic aromas I expected to encounter, but the palate was nearly incomprehensible. It alighted on each living thing in a kingdom of flowers, stone-fruits and herbs, releasing a massive sensual vinosity within which all of them are steeping."

It has a pleasant acidity that enhances the fruit and leads to a long finish. Simply delightful. (600 views)
 Tasted by StainedGlass on 7/15/2015 & rated 92 points: What a pleasant surprise for such a young Riesling. Floral nose, no petrol; hard to nail down the fruit components but white peach and a touch of grapefruit; flinty and focused with ample but balanced acidity. I was enjoying it so much neglected to take good notes before it was gone. Screw cap closure. It will be interesting to see this develop over the years, but it is off to a good start. (1123 views)

Lower Austria Wine Region

Lower Austria isn't "southern" Austria, but rather northeastern. It derives its name from its downriver location on the Danube River, which flows from west to east.
