Score 91/100 · Drink 2022-2045, Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate, Dec 2022
White-gold in color, Hirtzberger's 2021 Ried Axpoint Spitz Grüner Veltliner Smaragd is very clear, spicy and still yeasty on the nose but above all dense and ripe. The palate is very rich and concentrated but elegant and with fine crystalline saltiness. It does not really get going on the finish, but it starts fine and I'm quite hopeful. Wait and see. Tasted at Schloss Dürnstein, Wachau, in September 2022.
