Weingut Stadt Krems, Kremstal (Niederösterreich, Austria) Riesling 2022

Jan 30, 2024

By Vince Simmon

 Weingut Stadt Krems is one of the world’s oldest estates, claiming winemaking as far back as 1452.  Kremstal region’s natural air circulation brings in warmer air from the East and  naturally blocks cooler air from the mountainous region just to its west.  This micro-climate and region’s rocky soils are known for producing high-quality mineral driven Rieslings.  Weingut Stadt Krems’ Steinterrassen Riesling is dry and shows crisp ripe fruits ranging from freshly cut lime to pineapple and nectarine.  The bright acidity of this wine is perfect for acid-seeking wine lovers but can easily be tempered when paired with an oil or cream based sauce.
