Bright salted lime, snappy green apple, and pungent herbs are featured in Pichler’s 2007 Riesling Federspiel, reflecting the invigorating but rather brusque side of relatively early-harvested wines from this vintage. In appropriate culinary contexts, and over the next 2-3 years, it should be useful to have on hand. Pichler’s 2007s differ very little in gross chemistry from his 2006s – including the high alcohol of several Gruner Veltliner – yet they have dramatically different personalities. Pichler compares them with his 1997s, and perhaps time in bottle will more clearly bear out that high praise. Rudi Pichler is a great believer in watchfully letting nature take its course and although some of his 2007s came in with pH levels many growers would consider alarmingly high he gave no thought to adjusting them, and the finished wines bear him out, displaying the vivacity and freshness typical of 2007.Importer: Vin Divino, Chicago, IL; tel.
