90 Wine & Spirits

Mikulov, where this 68-acre estate was established in 2004, is an hour’s drive north of Vienna, just across the border. The rolling hills, loamy soils and nearby lake make for rich welchriesling; the 2011 is honeyed and orange-toned, with apple blossom scents and celery seed herbals that lend delicacy while smoky earth tones add gravitas. It’s succulent and intriguing, a wine that would be fun to pair with intricately spiced dishes, like Persian rice with saffron and dried barberries.
