Weingut Prager 2021 Grüner Veltliner Wachau DAC Ried Zwerithaler Kammergut Smaragd / Pale yellow-green, silver glints. Delicately savoury, with a hint of meadow herbs, soft aniseed and caraway notions, notes of ripe yellow stone fruit, delicate mango and honeydew melon. Complex, juicy, enormously concentrated, white stone fruit, taut and tightly woven, filigree acidity, salinity and lingers for minutes. Definite ageing potential for decades. A Grüner Veltliner marvel par excellence - will remain unrivalled for a long time. 99-100p

Weingut F. X. Pichler Grüner Veltiner Unendlich 2017 / 100 points
Medium yellow-green, silver reflections. An inviting bouquet of fine blossom honey underlaid with nuances of fresh apricot, fine tropical fruit and a floral touch. Juicy palate with fine fruit, silky structure, elegant acidity, all perfectly balanced. Mineral and long on the finish, this is extremely satisfying and will age beautifully.

Peter Moser / BWW2024 Finalist, Wine Writer (Austria)  had a tasting of  23 Wines  from  3 Producers 

Kracher Chardonnay Trockenbeerenauslese No. 8 Nouvelle Vague 2007 /Deep golden yellow. Intense papaya and coconut aromas over grapefruit and citrus notes make a thoroughly exotic first impression. The exotic quality carries through on the palate, where roasted oak and cinnamon add another element. Thrilling acidity gives balance and focus to this voluptuously sweet wine. Flavors of papaya, pineapple and toasted coconut linger with great persistence. Although already quite harmonious, this wine should continue to gain in complexity over the next decades.

Peter Moser / BWW2024 Finalist, Wine Writer (Austria)  had a tasting of  23 Wines  from  9 Producers 

Weingut Emmerich Knoll Gruner Veltliner Smaragd Vinothekfullung 2005 / Medium yellow-green. Intense dried fruit aroma with a hint of smoked bacon on the fascinating nose. Opulent, sweet papaya and wet pebbles are found in a full-bodied wine that is given shape and lift by refreshing acidity. I'd wait on this one for a year or two. Drink 2008 to 2015.
