Score 94/100 · Drink 2026-2050, Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate, Dec 2021

The 2020 Ried Achleiten Riesling Smaragd offers a well-concentrated, fleshy and spicy stone fruit aroma with crunchy and flinty notes. It needs some time to get rid of the stewed fruit flavors, though. Full-bodied, fresh and crystalline, this is an elegant, complex and finely tannic Riesling that needs some years rather than a carafe to polymerize the tannins and gain some finesse. Tasted at the domain in June 2021.

How can you resist the allure of the beautifully ripe peaches and wild roses? Extremely focused and filigree, a great deal of ripeness of concentration packed into a sleek frame. Wonderfully uplifting mineral freshness and a smoky finish that’s as firm as it is delicate. Drink or hold.
