Description
"This vintage's "M" originates solely in the Loibenberg and, following a common practice in the Wachau, takes the designation Reserve because of having finished fermenting with too much residual sugar (in this case, 16 grams) to qualify as Smaragd. A further consequence is its weighing in at only a bit more than 13% alcohol. This was raised in a once-used 2,500-liter cask so there is still some resin and spice from the oak, but, like the wine's subtle sweetness, that element manages to integrate successfully into honey and cocoa powder notes that inflect luscious flavors of peach, pineapple, pink grapefruit and mango. Surprisingly fruit-dominated, this expansive and creamily textured Riesling elixir acquires welcome counterpoint and invigoration thanks to piquancy of peach kernel and tart twang of pineapple core and grapefruit rind. It finishes with compelling, indeed amazing, length, if not-for now, at least-significant complexity of an interactive sort."- Vinous, Nov 2015 94 points
