FAMILIE SAAHS NIKOLAIHOF WACHAU VINOTHEK RIESLING 2002 (OWC)

Austria.

From the Vom Stein vineyard and stylistically a Smaragd but bottled in July 2018 after 16 years in vats, the 2002 Riesling Vinothek is clear, pure and floral/herbal on the delicate, completely healthy nose. Full-bodied, intense and concentrated on the palate, with fascinating clarity and persistently salty mineral tension, this is an exciting, firmly structured and sustainable dry Riesling of great class and style. Absolutely vivacious and pure. March 2020 Drink: 2020-2050 WA 96

6 bts.    per lot $1,000 - $1,200

Realised: $1,044
