The 2021 Riesling Pfaffenberg is picked from the gneiss and amphibolite of this steep site directly on the Danube. The nose is much more shy than the bright and open 2022. Subtle bergamot and tangerine peek through gently. The palate, likewise, is more closed but comes with a bright clarity of Mirabelle jelly and a passion fruit tartness that is as appealing as it is sour. Beautiful, linear, taut and bright, with zesty concentration, the finish is absolutely mouthwatering and dry. (Bone-dry) Drinking range: 2027 - 2045 Rating: 95 Anne Krebiehl MW, Vinous.com (Nov 2023)

We offer free nationwide delivery on all orders over £150 (excluding Highlands & Islands). Express Delivery options also available.Salomon Undhof
Founded in 1792 SALOMON UNDHOF is a wine estate with a long tradition. The Salomon family from the Wachau produces white wines from the best terraced "Urgestein" sites along the Danube River in Stein and Krems. Today Bert and Gertrud Salomon run the winery. The famous Riesling of the estate thrives on the topsites of Kögl and Pfaffenberg. The Grüner Veltliner Von Stein comes from the steep terrassed hills behind the old town of Stein. The best "loess" soils provide the Lindberg and Wachtberg Grüner Veltliner. All the grapes are harvested traditionally by hand only. Their great vineyard locations and meticulous work in the vineyards are prerequisites for their elegant wines. Wines with finesse and perfect mineral balance reflect the very special micro climate of this lovely river valley. The Estate’s Grüner Veltliner and Riesling distinguish themselves through elegance and consistency.
