2021 Riesling Smaragd Steinporz Franz Hirtzberger lots of ripe berry fruitJames Suckling 93 points: Restrained nose of stone fruit, licorice and chamomile. Generous fine tannins support the generous body of this amply dry riesling and somewhat mask the pronounced acidity on the well structured and quite juicy palate. Slightly chewy finish. Drink or hold.
