  February 19, 2023 - Stone and mineral, cucumber, persimmon and spring herbs on the nose. this has terrific clarity and focus. Mid weighted, finely detailed and graceful on the palate. It dances with grace. Drinking it is like drinking mineral water. A delicious "less is more" wine. Drink now. 92

  March 11, 2018 - If you don’t like sumptuous and rich Grüne Veltliner from the Wachau, this is your cup of tea. This wine seems more like a Chablis than a GV. Overall very precise and more citrus than stone fruit. Even if some Smaragds can be tiresome, this is missing a little richness and inner balance, especially at this price point.

  October 10, 2016 - Poured a light golden yellow to the stem. Fresh nose of honeydew, smoke, cantaloupe, and lemon oil. Medium and refreshing on the palate with hints of grapefruit, green melon, hazelnut, and diffuse citrus nuance. A slight spritz on the back end characteristic of some Gruners. Very adept and precise winemaking here with a convincing vein of acidity. Paired with fresh line caught Snapper with basmati rice and cornbread.
