Domäne Wachau Grüner Veltliner Smaragd Ried Achleiten 0.75l

Achleiten, the legendary site of Weissenkirchen in the Wachau Valley, is renowned worldwide for producing wines with a distinctive mineral character. Its vineyards, dating back to the 12th century, are planted on terraced dry walls. The soil composition is primarily silicates, with metamorphic rocks dominating the upper terraces and dark, slaty amphibolites prevailing on the lower terraces. Achleiten wines are known for their minerality, with hints of smoke and subtle flint notes, along with a complex structure. They also exhibit fine herbal spiciness, gentle stone fruit nuances, delicate exotic aromas, and pronounced acidity, making them truly exceptional.

Grapes: Grüner Veltliner

Food Pairing: This wine pairs perfectly with Austrian classics like slow-cooked beef with horseradish or chive sauce, as well as spicy Asian dishes like Thai Som Tam (spicy papaya salad) .
