Score 94/100 · Drink 2021-2040, Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate, Dec 2018
The Dürnsteiner 2017 Ried Liebenberg Riesling Smaragd is from the highest terraces of the cool "grand cru" and offers a clear, crunchy, well concentrated and herbal bouquet of white fruits and mocha beans. Very elegant, fresh and piquant on the palate, with lingering salinity and phenolic grip, this is a dense, tightly woven and well concentrated Liebenberg Riesling with lovely astringency and salinity on the stimulating finish. A gorgeous and exciting Riesling Smaragd with terrible freshness and firm structure. Tasted in Unterloiben, Wachau, September 2018.
