Tasting notes:

Located in the eastern section of Traisenthal, not far south of the Danube, the vineyards around Traismauer are on the east side of the Traisen River and are exposed to the afternoon and evening sun. The soils are more dominated by clay. So this wine is slightly richer in style, showing white peach and white cherry fruit, lime cordial and hints of smoke and earth. Just dry, the wine is mid-weight, the flavours balanced by racy acidity, with good definition and length. A delightful wine to pair with herbed scallops and prawns in an orangelime marinade.  Eliseo Silva Riesling Hills & Valleys Riesling Thirty Bench Wine Makers Winemaker’s Blend Riesling £15-£20 Permission to Pivot Peller Estates LSD Riesling Thirty Bench Wine Makers Small Lot Riesling Wild Cask Trius Winery £30-£50 Columbia Valley USA Clare Valley Signature Series Riesling Weingut Schätzel Showcase Riesling Ghost Creek Beamsville Bench Canada Great Southern Australia Niagara Peninsula Canada Beamsville Bench Canada Niagara Peninsula Canada Thirty Bench Wine Makers Small Lot Riesling Wood Post Vineyard Beamsville Bench Canada Riesling Kabinett Icewine Winery £50-£70 Trius Winery Name of Wine Rheinhessen Region Showcase Riesling Icewine Dry Blend (Up to 4 g/l) (Patricia Stefanowicz MW)
