Product Notes

Rudi Pichler's Wösendorfer Hochrain Smaragd exemplifies the exquisite craftsmanship synonymous with the Grüner Veltliner variety. This Austrian delight enchants with enticing straw-yellow hue and pronounced aromatic profile. Palate offers a sophisticated blend of tropical fruits, tangy lime, and subtly spiced white pepper. Underlying mineral notes bear testimony to the rich Wachau terroir. Acidity balances the ripe fruitiness, leading to a prolonged, refreshing finish. A wine with admirable complexity, its opulent body will mature graciously. Pichler's Smaragd is gorgeously expressive, an artistic alliance of finesse, intensity, and elegance. An impeccable companion for savoury dishes and hearty cheeses.
