(90 Points) "With no less clarity or (at 12% alcohol) buoyancy than its 2013 counterpart, thiscuvée features snap pea, pepper cress, crab apple and white peach in a performance of invigorating tartness and piquancy. The texture is satiny, yet the wine also delivers consummate refreshment. Salt and pepper add to the mouthwatering stimulation of its long finish. Despite having not been harvested until early November, this was bottled on January 20 due to demand. Yet such a short élevage doesn’t seem to have come at any obvious cost. (This bottling, officially classified as “Kremstal DAC” but otherwise without any special name of its own, represents, as usual, the intro-level Stadt Krems offering in the US, and while dominated by loess sites, incorporates first passes on several Urgestein parcels. As usual, too, there are only about a quarter as many bottles as of the estate’s Loessterrassen cuvée, which is sold overwhelmingly within Austria.) " Vinous / Antonio Galloni
