Jancis Robinson MW 16/20
RS 35 g/l.Very pale, like the drier wines. Not much nose. Medium sweet but still quite light. One of those wines I'd have a hard time fitting in to my drinking schedule. Too tart to serve with anything really sweet.Drink 2024 - 2032jancis_robinson_mw MW, JancisRobinson.com (September 2023)

About this wine
Riesling
Riesling's twin peaks are its intense perfume and its piercing crisp acidity which it manages to retain even at high ripeness levels.
Weingut Prager
Weingut Prager is run by Toni Bodenstein, son-in-law of Franz Prager and one of the most celebrated winemakers in Austria today. Toni has run the estate for a number of years now and is the foremost authority in the region on the hugely diverse microclimates across the valley. Earnest but very likeable, he has made a minute geological study of this extraordinary terroir. Southfacing and running down to the Danube, his Achleiten vineyard yields both Grüner Veltliner and Riesling from the top Smaragd classification.
