Domäne Wachau Riesling Terrassen Smaragd 2023

This Riesling Terrassen Smaragd bursts with ripe aromas of apricot, nectarine, and subtle hints of passion fruit. On the palate, it reveals a rich and energetic profile, showcasing expressive fruit that is both delightful and elegantly balanced. This charming Smaragd offers a long, lingering finish, embodying the dry, full-bodied, and complex nature typical of Smaragd wines, with ample finesse and great aging potential.

Served ideally fresh from the fridge, this wine pairs beautifully with asparagus wrapped in ham or classic dishes like sauce Hollandaise and grilled local fish such as trout or char. It also complements hearty favorites like pasta ham bake with a crisp lettuce salad or rissoles with mashed potatoes. For those looking for adventurous pairings, try it alongside spicy Far Eastern dishes, such as Korean Bulgogi—fried beef marinated in soy sauce, ginger, and garlic. Enjoy it young to savor the intriguing fruit aromas, or age for 3-5 years to unlock complex, multi-layered flavors.
