Pichler-Krutzler 'Loiben' Riesling, Wachau, Austria 2023
Pichler-Krutzler is a partnership between Elisabeth Pichler (daughter of legendary winemaker F.X. Pichler) and her husband Erich Krutzler. Since founding the winery in 2007, the duo has focused on crafting precise, mineral-driven wines from some of the Wachau’s top sites, with a philosophy rooted in low intervention and transparency of terroir.
-
WINEMAKER: Erich Krutzler & Elisabeth Pichler
-
FARMING: Practicing organic
-
VARIETY: 100% Riesling
-
TERROIR: Sourced from multiple parcels in Loiben, a sub-zone in the eastern Wachau known for its varied geology. These vineyards sit on a mix of gneiss, granite, and weathered rock.
-
VINIFICATION: Grapes are hand-harvested and fermented with native yeasts in stainless steel tanks.
-
AGING: Aged on fine lees in stainless steel with no oak influence to maintain focus and linearity.
-
TASTING NOTES: The 2023 'Loiben' Riesling is energetic and tensile, with notes of lime zest, green apple, white blossoms, and crushed stone. It finishes with mouthwatering acidity and a saline lift.
-
FOOD PAIRINGS: Excellent with sushi, scallop crudo, pork schnitzel, or green papaya salad.
