Grüner Veltliner Ried Axpoint Smaragd 2023

Grüner Veltliner from Ried Axpoint is a captivating wine that elegantly balances the cool influence of the Jauerling with the density and texture imparted by its deeper topsoil. The aromas are a delightful blend of melon and litchi, accented by hints of white pepper, subtle smokiness, and notes of hay and beeswax.

On the palate, this wine is dense yet remarkably balanced, showcasing a refreshing, classy acidity that supports its distinctive structure. As a Smaragd, it epitomizes the dry, dense, and complex wines of the Wachau, promising not only depth but also exceptional aging potential.

When well chilled, Grüner Veltliner Axpoint pairs beautifully with classic Austrian dishes such as crispy Wiener Schnitzel with potato salad or a succulent veal rump. It also shines alongside flavorful Asian cuisine, making it a perfect match for dishes like Indian tandoori chicken, enhancing the dining experience with its vibrant character.
