DURNBERG FALKENSTEIN RIESLING 2020

Weingut Dürnberg's Falkenstein Riesling emerges from Austria's Weinviertel region in Niederösterreich, where pioneering winemaker Christoph Körner harnesses the incredible potential of this underappreciated terroir through sustainable farming practices. The unique limestone-rich soils of Falkenstein, coupled with the area's cool microclimate, create ideal conditions for producing Riesling with remarkable precision and character. This wine presents an inviting bouquet of stone fruit, cool minerals, and subtle spices that lead to a full-bodied palate showcasing juicy apricot flavors balanced by lively acidity. The crystalline purity characteristic of Dürnberg's "new Weinviertel style" shines through while simultaneously delivering impressive complexity and finesse, with a stimulating, mineral-driven flow that captures the essence of this distinctive Austrian winegrowing region.
