title: Alzinger 2013 Steinertal Smaragd Riesling (Wachau)
description: The scent of very ripe Amalfi lemon hovers above everything but the second sniff immediately signals juicy Mirabelle plums edged with Golden Delicious apple. The palate is equally ripe and smooth—warm sunshine refracted through a prism of opulent fruit, yet toned and precise. Some exposure to air reveals a distinctly stony minerality. A keeper.
variety: Riesling
