2022 Riesling Smaragd Steinporz Franz Hirtzberger Spirituosen a versatile food accompanimentJames Suckling 97 points: Stunning peachy nose with a fascinating smoky touch. Super structured and super mineral with a great deal of drive, this medium bodied and finely nuanced wine reminds me of the great Wachau dry rieslings of the 1980s and early 1990s. Amalfi lemon zest, candied orange and a slew of delicate spicy aromas at the extremely long finish. Drink or hold.
