Rudi Pichler 'Ried Hochrain' Smaragd Riesling 2023 Pinot Grigio two-thirds on the Côte deTASTING NOTE: "The 2023 Riesling Hochrain Smaragd, is grown on both loess and paragneiss. It still has a touch of reduction for now, but the palate unfolds in a lovely spectrum of green and orange citrus, capturing that transition of green to orange in Seville oranges. The palate is concentrated and has a lovely edge of salty pith, mouthwatering and simply gorgeous. Riesling lovers take note. (Bone dry) (Drink between 2028 2055)." 97 Points Anne
