Descrizione

The Riesling Federspiel Ried Burgstall from the prestigious Weingut F.X. Pichler is an exceptional example of elegance and complexity, originating from the heart of the Wachau wine region in Austria. This Riesling expresses a captivating bouquet, releasing aromas of ripe fruit such as peach and apricot, enriched with mineral nuances and a slight touch of white flowers. On the palate, the liveliness of the acidity harmoniously balances with a medium body and silky texture, leading to a persistent and refreshing finish. Harmoniously positioned between structure and drinkability, the Federspiel Ried Burgstall is excellent to enjoy young but also has good aging potential. Perfect for serving with fish or seafood dishes, this wine elevates every meal to a refined gastronomic experience.

Winery history

The family estate has roots in the Wachau, and the Pichler family has been active for several generations; the Oberloiben estate is already mentioned as early as the late 19th century, and current management comprises Lucas Franz Pichler together with Johanna Elisabeth, who continue the family tradition. In recent decades the winery has expanded its holdings into individual high-quality Rieden, developing a style focused on physiological ripeness and on expressing the vineyard.

Production philosophy

They seek to highlight the character of each individual vineyard rather than a uniform style: hand-harvesting on steep parcels, careful attention to the physiological ripeness of the grapes and massal selection to preserve varietal and site-specific characteristics. Sustainable and organic farming practices are also in place and are certified on the winery's website.

Terroir and vineyards

The winery is located in the Wachau, with vineyards around Oberloiben and Dürnstein. Among the Rieden mentioned are Loibenberg, Kellerberg, Klostersatz, Trum, Burgstall and Steinertal; many parcels are steep terraces with dry-stone walls, typical of the Wachau.
