A good amount of acidity and minerality. Apricot, lemon, beeswax, wet slate, so good. — 6 days ago

Singerriedel Smaragd Riesling 2018

Wow! Exploding with tropical fruits but with a flinty/smokey mineral backbone. Have had these older but this was better younger — 2 months ago

Christina St. Laurent 2021

Powerful aromas, ripe black fruits. Light and fruity in the palate with a surprise smokiness. Some of the natural wine comes through on the nose and palate, but not overpowering. Very drinkable! Perfect pairing with our Christmas Eve Austrian Dinner! — 6 months ago

Kirchweg Smaragd Grüner Veltliner 2018

Viognier-esque bitterness, Riesling-esque fruit, Burgundy minerality. A chameleon but still quintessential Gruner. The toffee notes and golden hue screams Smaragd. — 4 months ago
