2015 Kremstal Ried Pfaffenberg Riesling trocken Alte Reben, Lower Austria/Niederösterreich, Austria

Tart and firm, almost compact, herbaceous-vegetable, also a hint of nutty fragrance with initially restrained, then more pronounced stone fruit notes and ripe citrus fruit. Ripe, slightly warm, dense, somewhat creamy fruit, lots of sweetish tart apricot and peach juice, very fine acidity, some grip, smoky and nutty hints, powerful and persistent on the palate, compact again, mineral foundation, red berry nuances, a little butter caramel with air, but remains firm, good depth, a little herbs and pak choi, very good to long, dense, again very juicy and mineral-grounded finish with grip.
