About 3 years since my last bottle. This is fantastic now. On the nose: ripe peach, soft yeast, dense honeysuckle, soft petrol..so floral and intense. Fantastic acidity, and amazing density, lemon oil, peach, honey, then dripping with mineral intensity...wet stone, mineral oil, and the fruit recedes, only to reappear as soft lemon on the finish. Absolutely lovely. — 4 years ago

Starts out on the wrong foot. Barnyard and aggressive CO2, but within 20 minutes was singing. Cherries and subtle licorice. Almost a milk chocolate sweetness, but like when chocolate is almost fruity. But not at all bitter. And has the sexy texture im starting to look for almost more than taste in determining quality — 5 years ago

Stunningly complex and alive, this is what I was hoping to find when opening an older bottle of Smaragd Gruner Veltliner.

The color was medium gold, no hint at all of age here.

The nose however started to put us where we were thinking, but there was still some youth. A deep and penetrating nose of golden delicious apples, yellow plums, and quince paste. The nose was so deep I wanted to jump into the glass!

The palate was exceptional, perfectly balanced with excellent density, breadth and a crazy long finish of minerals, fine acidity and subtle, juicy golden fruits.

An epic wine for me and a new benchmark for Gruner for my palate.

To add to the magic I walked the vineyard earlier in the day. — 9 years ago
