Prager - Riesling Smaragd Achleiten Wachau 2016 (750ml)
James Suckling: 98 Points
A stunning high-end dry riesling that's still quite shy on the nose, but really concentrated and very finely-nuanced on the palate. Devastatingly beautiful peachy fruit, some honeysuckle and enormous depth at the long, graceful finish. This will age well if you can resist it now.

The 2016 Ried Achleiten Riesling Smaragd offers a clear, precise, and beautifully aromatic bouquet of ripe and concentrated Riesling berries intertwined with flinty aromas of crystalline rocks. On the palate, this is a straight, lean, fresh and very complex Riesling full of salt and needles stimulating your tongue! What a pure, elegant and mouthwatering Riesling this is! The fruit is perfectly ripe and lush and greatly interwoven with the mineral structure of this fascinating 2016. This is a great Riesling classic from the fabulous Achleiten in Weissenkirchen full of tension, grip and finesse! Riesling lovers shouldn't miss to try it!
