Pale yellow-green with silver reflections, this Riesling has delicate yellow peach, pineapple, and hints of honey nuances. On the palate, the clean acidity adds wonderful length and great ageing potential to the wine.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLoibenberg is one of the largest single vineyard sites in the Wachau and the aspect of the slope is one of the steepest in Loiben. It is fully exposed to the south, making it very warm and sunny, producing opulent, intense and yet subtle wines. The high-grade bedrock soil is geologically dominated by Gföhler gneiss, a transformation rock that consists of acidic, granite-like protoliths. The sandy-stony soils naturally provide ample water drainage, thus encouraging root growth. The soil also warms up rapidly during springtime and ensures early budding.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eF.X. Pichler is located in Wachau, a region so remarkably beautiful that it has earned a spot on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The Pichler family have farmed in the Wachau for five generations, with Franz Xaver (F.X.) building the winery in 1971, where his son Lucas makes the wines today. Lucas’ grandfather began the family legacy with just three hectares of vines, which has since grown to 20 hectares of organically farmed vineyards.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehttps:\/\/fx-pichler.at\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"London End Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54868731330937,"sku":"11457723","price":66.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/5405\/2509\/files\/F.X.PichlerRiedLoibenbergWachauRiesling.jpg?v=1723041628","url":"https:\/\/www.londonendwines.com\/products\/f-x-pichler-ried-loibenberg-wachau-riesling-2023","provider":"London End Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
