The 2024 Grüner Veltliner Loibenberg Smaragd adds aromatic crushed ivy to its ripe pear, alongside gorgeous white pepper. On the palate, it is smooth and round, plunging into a depth of flavour that unites yellow pear, yeast, crushed sage and more of that lovely pepper. The texture only underlines this. Everything is here: body but not weight, length but no heat. 94–96 points. Anne Krebiehl MW, Vinous May 2025

Notes
Grown on warm, south-facing terraces on the fabled Loibenberg vineyard on primary rock (gneiss). Vines are an average of 28 years old, with some as old as 50. Harvested by hand and pressed as bunches, with 4-6 hours of skin contact in the pneumatic press. Natural fermentation takes place in a mix of older, large-format casks (500- to 5000-litre) and stainless steel, followed by around 6 to 8 months on full lees with no bâtonnage.
Very bright and expressive yet structured, showing aromas of coriander, honeysuckle, pineapple and candied lemons. It’s full-bodied, firm and full of tension. Tannin tautness to support the fruit and wild herbs that evolve to salty minerality at the end. Drink or hold. 96 points. Claire Nesbitt, jamessuckling.com Sep 2025
