Stadt Krems Riesling 'Ried Grillenparz' Erste Lage Kremstal 2022
This stunning single-vineyard Riesling by Weingut Stadt Krems comes from a premier “Erste Lage” site in Stein, Austria—part of the legendary Grillenparz terraced slopes overlooking the Danube. The vines (planted between 2003–2006) thrive on heat-retaining gneiss, mica-schist, and calcareous soils under a sunny southern exposure. The grapes are harvested in precise passes, fermented and aged in stainless steel for seven months, and bottled unfined. With just 3.6 g/L residual sugar, this Riesling definitely has a dry finish and beautiful acidity.
On the nose and palate, expect a vibrant zing of tangerine and ripe citrus, stone fruit, floral honeyed tones, and that signature Austrian slate-minerality. Pair with seafood (think oysters & shellfish), pork sausages, fresh vegetable dishes, or anything you’d brighten up with a lemon squeeze. This is a precise, elegant, mineral-rich Riesling that shows off Kremstal’s terroir in style—your next favorite dinner white.
