Auersthal is just barely beyond Vienna’s northern suburbs, in a dead-still little wine village in the Weinviertel. Hofer belongs to a group called Bio-Ernte which has standards for organic certification that are above the EU guidelines. The vineyards lie in a rain-shadow and have to endure hot summers. In fact Hofer plants his Riesling in a fog-pocket as he gets so little rain. The wines are pressed conventionally (no whole-cluster) with skin contact, and all whites are done in stainless steel. This wine has a very clean bouquet of lime citrus and Green apple with wet stone and steely mineral notes. Crisp and bright on the tongue with zesty lime citrus and a nice touch of salty briny mineral through the finish. Finish 40+ Excellent
