The white wine Grüner Veltliner Smaragd Kirchweg, vintage 2012 from the winery Weingut Franz Hirtzberger has been rated in 2013 with 94 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Grüner Veltliner from the region Wachau in Austria.
Light yellow-green in colour. Inviting yellow tropical fruit aromas, a hint of pineapple, blossom honey and a mineral touch on the nose. The palate is juicy, with nuances of mango and apricot, underpinned by a finesse-rich acidity structure that is filigree-fine and dancing on the palate. It lingers well, with some dark minerality emerging on the finish. Certain ageing potential.
