2021 Weingut Pfaffl Sonne Riesling

In 1978, Roman and Adelheid Pfaffl became owners of Weingut Pfaffl at a young age in Stetten, a village just north of Vienna in the Weinviertel - Lower Austria region. Before 1978, the Pfaffl farm was dominated by the cultivation of grains, potatoes and the rearing of cows and pigs. A lot has changed in a short time and Pfaffl is currently one of the highest peaks in Austria. Pfaffl was named Best Austrian Producer in 2022 by the Frankfurt International Trophy. Earlier this year they received the same award from Mundus Vini. At Parker (the Wine Advocate) they belong to the highest scoring producer with their entire range.

The Riesling Sonne from Pfaffl is a mineral, fruity and above all very pure style Riesling. This beautiful, elegant Riesling comes from the 'Sonnleiten' vineyard, which consists of stony rock terraces. The vines are older than 30 years and give and have a low yield. In the Riesling Sonne we smell and taste aromas of Apricot and Mandarin. The wine is mineral (wet pebble, lime), fruity and very pure with a good freshness. 92 points - Falstaff (2019) + 91 points - Wine Enthusiast (2019)
