The intensely yellow-colored 2019 Zöbing Ried Heiligenstein 1ÖTW opens with a deep highly refined and subtle yet also complex bouquet that doesn't throw out anything else but noblesse precision and finesse and quotes perfectly ripe and elegant (stone) fruit aromas intertwined with this distinctive crystalline and crunchy Heiligenstein sandstone and tea notes that are irresistibly alluring and almost (white) peppery. Crystalline refined and very elegant on the palate this is a dense round intense and highly complex firmly structured and very persistent Heiligenstein whose only problem is that most of the consumers will probably drink it too soon. I understand the reason but I recommend holding back as many bottles as possible for a later divertimento. This is a great Heiligenstein and it was stable over a period of two weeks. 13.5% alcohol. Tasted at Schloss Gobelsburg in June 2021 and again in my home office over several days a month later.
James Suckling: 95 Points
Ripe and spicy with a touch of dried pear alongside the fresh peach this dry riesling makes a serious statement. Lots of underplayed power here the acidity quite supple at the long spicy finish that?s well supported by positive tannins. Drink or hold.
