Weingut Wagner Stempel - EMT Riesling - Versteigerungswein 2019

JAMES SUCKLING: "A very striking wine with a ton of grapefruit-zest and pith character. Still very tightly wound with a ton of minerality, this packs a serious punch, but remains super bright and crisp. Very limited production. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "The 2019 Riesling "EMT" (Versteigerung) opens with a concentrated, flinty and slightly buttery bouquet of elegant and refined Riesling aromas. Round and finessed on the palate, this is a rich, elegant and concentrated but refined and salty Heerkretz selection from the oldest vines of the cru. The wine is powerful and hedonistic but fine and elegant. This is a Riesling that was auctioned in September 2020. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in January 2022."
