White
1998 Franz Hirtzberger Riesling Smaragd Hochrain
94 points
Glass: Zalto Bordeaux
I needed a wine that could go with the full seven course menu. I deliberately choose this bottle due to its high botrytis. Popped and poured.
Clear, glowing amber color. Beautiful complex and multi-layered nose with honey, beeswax, herbs, spices.
On the palate dry with noticeable residual sugar, high acidity and 14,5% abv, that was very well integrated. Beautiful complexity, tension and depth, very long finish. Went really well with the complex Menu. Great choice. 94
