Riesling Ried Achleiten Smaragd
Smaragd is the Wachau designation for dry late harvest wines, above 12.5% alcohol through natural fermentation. The best smaragd wines can age well for decades. From extremely steep, southwest-exposed terraces with meagre, Gföhl gneiss soils, this is a mineral-pure Riesling, one that epitomizes a wine’s authenticity and identity.
