Domäne Wachau Grüner Veltliner Ried Kellerberg Smaragd 2023

The Ried Kellerberg is celebrated for producing concentrated and profound wines, and the Grüner Veltliner Smaragd exemplifies this distinction. The nose presents a compact and expressive bouquet, featuring a firm spiciness complemented by smoky notes. On the palate, it reveals deep, savory flavors with a rich texture and a robust structure, all supported by a precise acidity and a lingering mineral finish.

As a Smaragd, this wine stands for dry, dense, and complex expressions typical of the Wachau, showcasing not only impressive depth but also significant aging potential.

Grüner Veltliner Smaragd Ried Kellerberg is an incredibly versatile companion. It pairs beautifully with Mediterranean dishes like creamy asparagus risotto or roasted sea bass with rosemary potatoes, as well as Austrian classics such as Wiener Schnitzel and fried porcini mushrooms served with tartar sauce. For a more adventurous pairing, it complements exotic dishes like Indian lamb biryani, featuring a delightful blend of curry, cashews, and raisins.
