Gruner Veltliner Prager Wachstum Bodenstein Smaragd 750ml

Discover the exceptional elegance of Weingut Prager Wachstum Bodenstein Gruner Veltliner Smaragd, a standout Austrian white wine from the iconic Wachau region. Crafted with meticulous precision by master winemakers at Weingut Prager, this varietal showcases the terroir’s mineral-rich soils and sun-drenched vineyards for a wine that’s both refined and deeply expressive.

Flavor Profile: Immerse yourself in a symphony of tropical and citrus notes—dragon fruit and papaya blend seamlessly with quince and Meyer lemon zest, creating a vibrant yet balanced profile. The texture is remarkably velvety, with a smooth mouthfeel that transitions into a crisp finish marked by wet stone minerality and subtle quinine-like bitterness. This harmonious interplay of flavors makes it an ideal companion for seafood dishes, goat cheese platters, or simply savoring as an apéritif.

Aging Potential & Pairing: Bottled to age gracefully, this wine offers exceptional cellaring potential from 2024 through 2035. Its structured tannins and bright acidity ensure it evolves beautifully over time, developing deeper complexity while retaining its signature freshness. Whether enjoyed now or cellared for years to come, it’s a perfect choice for connoisseurs seeking a sophisticated expression of Gruner Veltliner Smaragd.

Why It Stands Out: Hailing from Austria’s renowned Wachau Valley—a UNESCO World Heritage site—this wine embodies the region’s hallmark minerality and precision. Unlike many Grüner Veltliners that lean toward herbal austerity, this bottling strikes a rare balance between fruit-forward vibrancy and steely structure. Its velvety texture sets it apart from competitors, offering an approachable yet cellar-worthy option for both casual drinkers and collectors.

Elevate your wine collection with this Austrian white wine gem, where tradition meets modern craftsmanship for a taste of Wachau excellence in every sip.
