Josef Jamek 2006 Jochinger Berg Federspiel Riesling (Wachau)
- Cellar Selection
- $34
Jamek’s flagship wine is as fine as ever. There is some botrytis here, but this is not a sweet wine, rather one that shows vibrant fruit, great minerality and structure. It walks a tightrope between superripeness and freshness. With its structure, it should age for 10 years or more.

Josef Jamek 2008 Ried Klaus Smaragd Riesling (Wachau)
Perfumed, sweet aromas, but the palate is bone dry. The wine is tight, with a vibrant acidity, citrus, white currants and peach. A steely wine that needs a few years to really blossom.

Josef Jamek 2006 Ried Liebenberg Smaragd Grüner Veltliner (Wachau)
- Editors' Choice
- $56
Poised and elegant, this has deliciously restrained fruit that shows green plum flavors and a layer of pepper. To finish this finely balanced wine, there is a layer of fresh acidity. Needs another 3–4 years to develop and round out.

Josef Jamek 2006 Ried Achleiten Grüner Veltliner (Wachau)
- $40
Fresh, green fruit is topped by a creamy texture. It is apples and cream, with a touch of cinnamon—just like mom used to bake. And at the same time, there is minerality and lively acidity.

Josef Jamek 2003 Ried Klaus Smaragd Riesling (Wachau)
- $70
This austere style of Riesling accurately reflects the mineral character that comes from the soil of the Ried Klaus vineyard. Lemon zest, white peach and spice flavors combine with a steely streak that suggests this wine will age well. Imported by Michael Skurnik Wines.

Josef Jamek 2006 Stein am Rain Federspiel Grüner Veltliner (Wachau)
- $36
This wine manages to balance freshness with rich, concentrated fruit. It is certainly full-bodied, reveling in its ripe kiwi and pear flavors. But it also shows crispness, light acidity and a lively aftertaste.

Josef Jamek 2000 Smaragd Ried Achleiten Grüner Veltliner (Wachau)
- $40
You can sense the extra ripeness in this wine’s warm aromas of leather and spice. The scents are almost meaty. Dark and warm flavors of Moroccan spices burnish the palate. —J.C.
