The 2023 Riesling Achleiten Smaragd has a lovely flinty, smoky note of green moss spreading out into citrus foliage, delicate, serene and bright. The palate is slightly rounder than the nose suggests, adding supple Reine Claude plum flesh and juiciness to the mid-palate, where even pale peach gets a look in. It is very smooth and ripe with pale stone fruit. Finesse becomes apparent on the finish with tingling citrus notions. (Dry) - By Anne Krebiehl MW on May 2024

The Vineyard: Achleiten sits east of Weissenkirchen and is one of the most famous vineyards in the Wachau. The steeply-terraced vineyard existed in Roman times. Some sections have just 40 cm of topsoil over the bedrock of Gföler Gneiss, amphibolitic stone, and slate. “Destroyed soil,” as Toni Bodenstein likes to say.
