This spectacular dry Riesling comes from perhaps the greatest Austrian vineyard found outside of Wachau. Heiligenstein is a terraced vineyard with exceptional exposure and a rare geological make-up whose reddish-brown sandstone has been dated back 280 million years. Hirsch farm their parcels with strict biodynamic protocols, which extend into a very hands-off approach in the cellar. The estate crafts Riesling in a very traditional way, with whole cluster press, ambient yeast, neutral oak, and extended time on the lees.

Accolades

Vinous: 92 points

"Peach, orange, lime, oregano, peony, rowan and carnation combine for a pungent and (given that it’s Gaisberg we’re talking about) unexpectedly floral nose. The midpalate is glossy and richly fruited yet delightfully buoyant and brightly juicy, with the effusive array of floral elements persisting as inner-mouth perfume. Zesty citrus peel and piquant apricot kernel lend stimulating counterpoint to an impressively sustained finish suffused with mouthwatering salinity."
