The 2000 Riesling Smaragd Durnstein Hollerin, produced from a terroir known for its poor, sandy soil, has a nose filled with rich, ripe, pears. On the palate the pear flavors are intermingled with honeysuckle blossoms, verbena, and chamomile. This extremely elegant, light to medium-bodied, feminine wine has outstanding balance. Projected maturity: Now-2012. Importer: Vin Divino, Chicago, IL; tel. (773) 334-6700
