An F. X. 2010 Riesling Reserve M reflects harvest in Loibenberg and Kellerberg of fruit partly desiccated and lightly botrytized (“though without spores,” Lucas Pichler emphasizes), and like one previous wine so-labeled (from 2001) this left behind residual sugar slightly in excess of that permissible for Smaragd. “It just gave up fermenting in January,” explains Pichler, “and I was not about to force it to go dry.” Bottled only a few days before I tasted it in mid-June, this richly-textured, ripely peachy, liqueur-like though nearly-dry Riesling contrasts markedly with its Unendlich counterpart, offering a rather opaque and static performance. Brown spices and honey hinting at noble rot along with fusil and alkaline mineral notes, add interest to a long, soothing finish. The Pichlers think this will be especially long-lived. I would certainly anticipate a strong showing over the next 10-12 years, and there may be more once the wine has recovered from bottling.

ACHTUNG: M wie MAXIMAL!
