Tasting Notes

Pointed, precise and spicy are the key words for the Heiligenstein Riesling in 2012. Eichinger consistently makes superb Riesling but this is a triumph. Apricots, peaches, citrus and almond compile an extremely complex palate with a decidedly white pepper spice finish. Excellent structure and rapier-like acidity makes this at once refreshing and age-worthy.

ProducerWeingut Eichinger

Birgit Eichinger’s goals are clear – to optimise the natural aroma and flavour potential inherent in the grapes by matching varietals and terrain, practising careful vineyard management and applying painstaking vinification. Having begun her winemaking career experimenting with 3.5 hectares from her parents’ business in the Kamptal region of Austria, it didn’t take long to build on this success and establish a winery of her own. Standing at the foot of the Gaisberg mountain, the Weingut Eichinger winery is ultramodern and vinification takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks with the emphasis being placed on the purity of the grapes.
