James Suckling: 94 Points
Complex nose of wild herbs, green and white pepper with a pronounced savory note. Medium- to full-bodied with lots of structure and excellent concentration, this powers its way across the palate without any feeling of heaviness. Long, bold finish with plenty of wild herb complexity. A cuvee of seven steep terraced vineyard sites.
Vinous Media: 92 Points
The 2022 Grüner Veltliner Smaragd Terrassen is a blend of top sites in Wösendorf and Joching, some sandy, and some on mica schist, with minimal loess. The nose opens with a white miso savoriness blended with fresh green pear flesh. A crushed sage and yeast notion coats the mouth and presents a lovely web of fine, veil-like phenolics, finishing super-savory, salty and peppery.
Wine Spectator: 92 Points
This broad and nicely plump Gruner shows ripeness and warmth, with a fleshy feel to its lemon balm, roasted agave and citrus flavors, while lemon-lime and salt notes evoke a well-crafted margarita. Turmeric, cardamom and singed green herb accents add detail on the dense palate. This is briny and smoky through the finish. Drink now through 2040. 900 cases made, 112 cases imported.
