Alzinger's 2021 Ried Loibenberg Loibner Grüner Veltliner Smaragd is wonderfully clear, fresh and bright on the nose with precise fruit. Rich, elegant and full-bodied on the palate, with dense, long-lasting fruit and savory spice, this is a grippy and zesty Veltliner with plenty of power and structure. Tasted at Schloss Dürnstein, Wachau, in September 2022.
