Malat’s 2021 Pfaffenberg 1ÖTW Riesling is a strikingly pure expression of this revered Kremstal site. Pfaffenberg is a 1er Cru site according to the Austrian vineyard classification undertaken by the ÖTW, where primary rock soils lend both precision and depth. Tightly coiled citrus, white peach, and wet stone unfold with remarkable clarity, framed by piercing acidity and a long, saline finish. A wine of tension and poise, built to unfurl gracefully over time.
