Weingut Prager Riesling Wachau Achleiten Smaragd 2024

Weingut Prager’s Ried Achleiten Riesling Smaragd 2024 is a benchmark white wine from one of Wachau’s most celebrated single vineyards. Known for its precision, purity, and unmistakable sense of place, it combines mineral depth with the power and finesse that define the Smaragd category.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a bright, crystalline profile with impressive clarity and tension. The nose opens with citrus, ripe peach, apricot, wet stone, and a subtle herbal lift, creating an aromatic mix that feels both vibrant and layered. On the palate, the wine is concentrated yet elegant, with lively acidity, impressive depth, and a long, clean finish. Its structure and intensity suggest excellent aging potential, with the ability to evolve beautifully over many years.

Production
The grapes come from Ried Achleiten, a steep terraced site in Wachau with shale and gneiss soils that lend the wine its signature mineral character. The vineyard’s demanding conditions help produce small, concentrated berries, and the wine is crafted to preserve freshness, precision, and terroir expression through careful, restrained vinification.

Food & Serving
This Riesling pairs beautifully with shellfish, fine white fish, poultry, and dishes with Asian inspiration or a fresh aromatic edge. Serve well chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, and consider brief decanting if you want to open up its aromatic complexity.

Producer
