The vom Stein vineyard—meaning 'from stone'—captures the essence of Wachau's primary rock terroir. Nikolaihof's biodynamic farming since 1971 creates wines of exceptional purity, fermented without artificial yeast in ancient Austrian oak casks. The Riesling Smaragd designation indicates the highest dry level of Wachau classification. At six years old, this 2019 vintage shows mature complexity—the primary fruit integrating with secondary notes while maintaining the mineral focus that defines biodynamic viticulture. Nikolaihof's approach—moon-calendar planting and harvesting, no synthetics—creates wines that reflect their environment with unusual clarity.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 94
"The 2019 Riesling vom Stein Smaragd smells of fresh Mirabelle, ripe Amalfi lemon and a touch of chervil on a yeasty, smooth nose. The palate presents all this in one smooth, cooling flow, with notions of lemon becoming ever more prominent and apricot making a charming, perfumed appearance. Riesling's exuberance has been tamed into soothing mildness here. Full marks for charm and exquisite purity of fruit." -Anne Krebiehl MW

Robert Parker

RP 93
"Aged for four-and-one-half years in large wooden casks, the 2019 Ried Vom Stein Riesling Smaragd opens with a clear, pure and intense as well as savory/mineral nose that represents the Danube gravel of this terroir that is intermingled with loess and loam. On the palate, this is a rich and round, dense and savory/saline-finishing Riesling that is not bone dry and stopped the natural fermentation with 3.8 grams per liter of residual sugar. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in January 2025." -Stephan Reinhardt
