Weingut Prager
About Weingut Prager
A staunch defender in maintaining winemaking traditions, Weingut Prager has been helmed by Franz Prager's son-in-law, Toni Bodenstein, since the early 1990s and his scholarly terroir-driven approach, passion for biodiversity and brilliant winemaking has elevated Prager to the upper echelons of Austrian wine.
Producing world-class Riesling and Grüner Veltliner from their vineyards on the slopes of the Danube, Bodenstein swapped all vinification to stainless-steel tanks and this combined with his non-interventionist method creates wines with the utmost precision and elegance, moderate levels of alcohol and clear expression of their place of origin.

James Suckling (95)An extremely subtle gruner veltliner with so much herbal complexity and mountain freshness. Ripe and racy, with so much mineral energy. Very long and precise finish that's neatly supported by the very fine tannins. From a high-altitude vineyard planted in 1979 with more than 100 clones. Drink or hold. |

James Suckling (97)Superbly cool, restrained and refined, this austere, beautiful dry riesling is a slow-burn masterpiece that's only just beginning to reveal its complex white-peach, white-tea, wild-herb and dark-berry character. Super-long and mineral finish. Drink or hold. |

Jancis Robinson (18)Complete, warm, complex nose and then amazing grip on the finish. Such vice-like grip! Yet with wonderful freshness and life. This has so much to offer. It's like essence of Riesling. The finish is crawling with (good) micro-organisms somehow. A rich panoply of wild-flower flavours without being at all heavy. |
