Rudi Pichler Gruner Veltliner Smaragd Hochrain (750ML)

From Wachau

Vintage: 2022
Description: 96 JS / 95 Vm. A stunning wine for this grape that is also rather easy to understand. The Reine Claude plum and peppery nose is complex, but already charming. As exciting as the simultaneously creamy and succulent mid-palate is, what makes this medium- to full-bodied gruner veltliner really stand out is the extremely long, crushed rock finish. Drink or hold.-James Suckling. The 2022 Grüner Veltliner Smaragd Hochrain is sourced from vines on two different soils within the vineyard-slightly less weathered paragneiss, so vines are less able to penetrate, and deep loess. The palate homes in on savoriness on a fluid, smooth and absolutely streamlined body that brims with direction and a bright lemon streak. Also quite linear, this possesses gentle, salty length.
