The white wine Grüner Veltliner Smaragd Ried Achleiten, vintage 2017 from the winery Weingut Holzapfel has been rated in 2018 with 93 - 95 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Grüner Veltliner from the region Wachau in Austria.
Medium yellow-green, silver glints. A scent of tobacco underlaid with yellow pear, orange zest, a hint of quince, and blood orange nuances. Dark minerality. Powerful, taut, tightly structured, yellow apple tones with a savoury underlay. A liquid rock dust finish persists well and will benefit from bottle ageing. Prototypical Achleiten savouriness.
