Domäne Wachau, Grüner Veltliner Ried Achleiten Smaragd 2023

Pink peppercorn and grapefruit rind on the nose. Peach and apple skin notes intertwine with a cool mineral aroma that carries over to the palate. Long and persistent spice and mineral flavors linger on the finish.

Scored on a five-star scale, where a plus is a third of a star. How I score and what I disclose is set out in my ethics and disclosure policy. More notes are in the review index, and the regional background is in Wine in Germany.
