Tasting Notes
A dry, structured Wachau Riesling of great mineral character and pleasing freshness. Defined by high levels of dry extract from a lengthy ripening period and vibrant acidity driven by dramatic day-to-night temperature swings, this is a Riesling of real depth, precision, and aging potential.
About the Wine
Rudi Pichler is one of the Wachau's most respected producers, farming steep, southwest-facing terraces of meager primary rock soils that stress the vines and concentrate flavor. The Smaragd classification — the highest ripeness level in the Wachau — signals a wine of exceptional body and complexity. The Terrassen bottling draws from these dramatic hillside sites, delivering a wine that is simultaneously powerful and elegant.
Food Pairing
Pairs beautifully with river fish, Wiener Schnitzel, roasted pork, and aged hard cheeses. Also exceptional on its own as a contemplative sipping wine.
