2024 | Weinhofmeisterei Mathias Hirtzberger Grüner Veltliner Ried Smaragd | Wachau | Austria

Single-vineyard Smaragd Grüner from the next-generation Hirtzberger — complex, mineral Wachau at its source.

Mathias Hirtzberger, of the renowned Wachau family, opened his own "Weinhofmeisterei" in Wösendorf, just downstream from the family's Spitz estate. His heraldic-labeled wines honor the medieval St. Florian monastery. This top Smaragd Grüner comes from a single Ried at the foot of the slope — a very complex, mineral expression from one of Austria's most exalted white-wine regions.

Single-vineyard Smaragd Grüner from a rising Wachau name is a connoisseur's pour. Complex, mineral, top-tier ripeness → a new chapter of a legendary family → at $63.99 you're drinking serious single-site Wachau Grüner.
