The Prager Wachau Riesling Wachstum Bodenstein Smaragd is a distinguished white wine from the renowned Wachau region of Austria. It is characterized by its vibrant acidity and complex flavor profile, featuring notes of ripe stone fruits, citrus, and a hint of minerality, which is typical of this exceptional terroir.
This Riesling pairs excellently with a variety of dishes, including seafood, particularly grilled fish and shellfish, as well as poultry and Asian cuisine. It also complements rich cheeses, making it a versatile choice for dining.
The 2023 Riesling Wachstum Bodenstein Smaragd is on the Hochseiber site, planted in 1990 with the most varied selection of Riesling genetics of 25 different clones from across Germany, Alsace and Wachau. The site reaches up to 460 meters, which was difficult to ripen at the time of planting. The breezy freshness of fragrant and aromatic citrus features tangerine, bergamot and grapefruit. The palate is milder than the nose suggests but is defined by a fine-boned smoothness, translucent stoniness and finesse. Zestiness at the core is key, carrying the essential and eternal citrus nature of Riesling forward. The finish is lovely, long and delicious. (Dry)
