Markus Huber Ried Berg 1ÖTW Reserve Riesling 2021

A dry riesling star-burst of almost blinding intensity that makes some of the most famous Austrian wines from this grape seem timid and tame in comparison. Mind-blowing mineral freshness and vibrancy. Eye-popping lime-zest aroma. Almost unlimited aging capacity. From a site with iron-rich dolomite soil. From organically grown grapes. Vegan. Drinkable now, but best from 2023 [through 2031+]. Score - 99. (Stuart Pigott, jamessuckling.com, Jan. 2, 2023) 750 mL bottle
