2022 Wachau DAC Ried Kellerberg Grüner Veltliner Smaragd® trocken, Lower Austria/Niederösterreich, Austria

Firm and deep, very slightly warm apricot scent, also with tones of a little other, not only yellow stone fruit, fine herbal-vegetable aromas, some mushrooms and hints of yellow spice. Ripe, juicy, slightly sweet fruit with a little exotic touch, substantial, melting and somewhat warm on the palate, fine acidity, delicate grip, lasting and powerful, good depth, salty-mineral tones in the background, almost a little smoky hints, still undeveloped, becomes more tart and grippy with air, very good to long, juicy, finely spicy, again a little sweet and exotic-fruity finish.
