'Privat' Ried Hochäcker 1 ÖTW Kremstal DAC Riesling
The steep terraces, which are only separated from the Ried Pellingen by a wall, with their mica slate floor form the ideal conditions for growing Riesling. This combination gives the Riesling the dark, cool minaralik as well as the typical vineyard peach taste a lot of substance and a long life. The Riesling Privat comes from this location.

"Nigl's 2022 Ried Hochäcker 1–TW Riesling Privat has a noble, fine and intense nose with mineral substance and dense, elegant fruit aromas. Dense, rich and savory on the palate, with fine, elegant, well-integrated acidity and rested length, this is a mouthful of Riesling and substance with simultaneous elegance and subtlety. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at Schloss Grafenegg, September 2023."

"This is a fine example of a classic Austrian Riesling, showing peach and quince flavors, accented by wet stone and exotic spice notes. It sports beautiful concentration yet remains silky and elegant. The finish is inviting and multilayered. — Aleks Zecevic"
