Score 92/100 · Drink 2028-2039, Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate, May 2024

Prager's 2022 Ried Achleiten Grüner Veltliner Smaragd has a clear, spicy and dense nose of ripe stone fruit, and it's dense, very taut and spicy on the palate. Despite its power, it is currently ascetic and fresh but still not very stimulating. Tasted at Schloss Dürnstein, Wachau, in September 2023.

Weissenkirchen. Just 27 m from the Danube, terraced with slopes of 41–83%, facing west and south-east, stretching up from the river all the way to the forest. Extremely complex and diverse range of soils. Spicy, almost a little bit savoury/mealy first impression. Peppery pears, and sweeter-fruited with air. Dry, textured, medium weight on the palate but long thanks to the texture. (JH)
