Fresh apple and lime are surprisingly tinged with porcini (perhaps due to a brush with botrytis) and accompanied on a brightly juicy but polished and expansive midpalate by zesty orange and grapefruit. Alkaline, stony undertones tug the long finish in a somewhat austere direction, but refreshing juiciness and invigorating piquancy regain the upper hand.

The 2015 Riesling Smaragd Wösendorfer Kirchweg is pure and intense, darkly mineral and displays pure and stony flavors. Very pure and salty, this is a tension-filled and vibrant Smaragd with a long and tension-filled finish.
