Tasting Notes and Description
The Smaragd designation represents the pinnacle of dry wines in the Wachau, and this 2023 Riesling from Ried Klaus is a shining example. Josef Jamek, one of the founding figures in quality Austrian winemaking, crafts this wine with grapes from steep, sun-drenched slopes that yield fruit of exceptional ripeness and structure.
This is a powerhouse Riesling—concentrated yet graceful. Notes of ripe apricot, honeyed citrus, crushed rock, and white flowers unfold across a broad, textural palate. The length is extraordinary, balanced by piercing acidity that ensures cellaring potential for a decade or more.
