94 Points! Aromas of fresh grasses, herbs and spiced apple lead to a gently flinty palate that has quite a succulent texture. Apple and lemon flavors provide a fresh finish. Very pure, ethereal textural quality here. Drink or hold. Screw cap. - JamesSuckling.com

90 Points! From the first harvest pass in all the terraces (from younger vines) and from riper fruits in the flat area, the 2018 Dürnsteiner Grüner Veltliner Smaragd is clear, bright and white-fruited on the spicy-elegant nose. On the palate, this is a full-bodied but also fresh and piquant Veltliner Smaragd with good grip and nice bitters. Tasted at the domain in September 2019. - Stephan Reinhardt, robertparker.com Learn More
