About the manufacturer
Franz Hirtzberger
Franz Hirtzberger is one of the most renowned wineries in the Wachau, that legendary wine region on the Danube world-famous for its mineral-driven, precise White Wines. For generations, the estate has cultivated terraces with vines, some over 50 years old, in prime locations such as Honivogl, Steinporz, and Singerriedel – names you'll find on many of their bottles.
What distinguishes Hirtzberger is its unmistakable style: Grüner Veltliner and Riesling of extreme elegance and vibrancy, directly reflecting the slate, gneiss, and loess of their origin. The Wines are not opulent, but rather taut and dynamic – they show you what great Austrian White Wine can be. The winery works with a strong sense of tradition, respects the nature of its vineyards, and lets the grapes speak for themselves, rather than over-processing them.
With 27 products in our range, you have the opportunity to discover the full spectrum of this classic wine – from powerful to delicate, mineral interpretations. At Wine In Time, you'll find Hirtzberger Wines that will transport you directly to the steep slopes of the Wachau.

Singerriedel
The Franz Hirtzberger Singerriedel Smaragd Riesling 2012, presented in an impressive 3-liter double magnum, is an exceptional Riesling from one of the Wachau 's most prestigious vineyards . The Franz Hirtzberger winery in Spitz is among the very best of Austrian winemakers, and the Singerriedel vineyard, situated on steep, primary rock terraces, consistently produces Rieslings of monumental structure and longevity. The 2012 Vintage is considered a Vintage of the century in the Wachau – concentrated yet elegant, with perfect balance.
The grapes for this Smaragd Riesling come from old vines on weathered gneiss soils, were harvested late in October, and spontaneously fermented. Aging took place in traditional wooden barrels for many months, without malolactic fermentation, to preserve its vibrant freshness. The double magnum bottle ensures optimal, slow maturation – a wine that has decades of aging potential.
On the nose, a complex interplay of green apple, citrus fruits, delicate stone fruit, and that typical flinty minerality reminiscent of wet slate unfolds. On the palate, the 2012 Franz Hirtzberger Singerriedel reveals itself with monumental structure: precise, dense, with vibrant acidity and a saline minerality. The finish is endless, cool, with a lingering hint of grapefruit and wet stone.
