(Schloss Gobelsburg Riesling "Tradition") ($53.00) All Gaisberg, including some of the oldest vines that used to comprise a discontinued “Alte Reben” bottling. Thus in effect it’s another dialect of Gaisberg, and this ’09 smells just like good, open and generous Gaisberg. Markedly expressive, has the warmth (and even a little heat) of ’09, with the particular peony and blackberry of the site mingling with the tertiary vinosity from the old-school cellar work. Though both of these ’09 Traditions have such pithy primary fruit they taste less apart from their modern siblings than usual.
