Stockkultur Achleiten Gruner Veltliner 2020 Weingut Prager

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (96)

From vines planted in 1937 and picked as the first of the Smaragd wines, the 2020 Ried Achleiten Grüner Veltliner Smaragd Stockkultur (planted with 15,000 vines per hectare) opens with a spectacular deep and complex but refined, fresh and flinty bouquet with intense, ripe pear and biscuit aromas. On the palate, this is a dense and lush yet pure, elegant and complex, wide and powerful but also mineral Achleiten with a long, finely tannic and still sweet finish (due to more than 30 grams per liter of dry extract). Tasted at the domaine in June 2021.

Winespectator (96)

Extremely aromatic, with aromas ranging from jasmine to orange zest and tobacco leaf. Very concentrated, with remarkable ripeness for the challenging 2020 vintage. Excellent integration of ripe fruit, fine tannins and saline minerality at the long, polished finish. From vines planted in 1937. Drink or hold.
