Picked in Spitz between November 5 and 28, the 2016 Ried Honivogl Grüner Veltliner Smaragd opens with clear, deep, intense and ripe fruit intertwined with very fine mineral aromas of crushed gneiss and iron. Full-bodied, intense and very elegant on the palate, this is a rich but also pure and salty-mineral Veltliner with remarkable finesse and elegance and a complex finish that displays a lot of tropical aromas like bananas and super ripe stone fruits. Although it drinks perfectly (though a bit sweet) today, it will benefit from further bottle aging.
