From Franz Hirtzberger, one of the Wachau's most coveted addresses, it's a chance to taste the precision and minerality the estate is famous for at its most playful. The 2024 comes from Spitz, the cool Danube-side village where Hirtzberger has long been the benchmark, and shows everything we want from a great Steinfeder: light-footed, juicy, fragrant with yellow apple, mandarin zest, and a touch of blossom honey, with the energy of a perfect summer afternoon. An elegant introduction to one of Austria's defining estates.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Weygandt Selections [WEY]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45806586626105,"sku":"NYC-4-WEY-`HIRTGVDONSF24`-050526-4","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/Franz-Hirtzberger-Gruner-Veltliner-Spitz-Steinfeder-2024-White-Wine-Flatiron-Wines-Spirits-New-York.jpg?v=1778942754"},{"product_id":"franz-hirtzberger-gruner-veltliner-honivogl-smaragd-2024-750ml","title":"Franz Hirtzberger, Gruner Veltliner Honivogl Smaragd, 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003eHonivogl is one of Austria's most legendary single-vineyard Grüners — a steep, due-south, mineral-laced site at the base of Singerriedel along the Danube, planted to vines whose roots dig into pure Wachau rock. Franz Hirtzberger's Honivogl Smaragd consistently ranks among the top wines of Austria, and the Smaragd designation — the Wachau's ripest, most ageworthy tier — gives it the structure to deliver on that reputation. Expect everything that makes great Wachau Grüner immortal: lime and ripe peach, the lentil-and-white-pepper savor of the variety, a creamy richness held in line by ore-like minerality, and a smoky, black-tea finish.

Rotes Tor is a Spitz cru of mica-rich gneiss, and Federspiel is the middle tier of the Wachau's classification: ripe but not opulent, structured but not heavy, alcohol pulled back so the vineyard does the talking. The result is classic, savory Grüner — orchard fruit, white pepper, a saline lift through the finish — from one of the most coveted addresses in Austria. Franz Hirtzberger Sr. retired and Franz Jr. now runs things, but the philosophy hasn't moved an inch: site, precision, patience.

Steinerterrassen is Hirtzberger's Federspiel-tier blend of fruit from the estate's great Spitz crus — Setzberg, Hochrain, Steinporz, even a little Singerriedel — assembled into a mid-weight Riesling meant for early enjoyment rather than long sleep. Federspiel rules cap the alcohol around 12.5%, so what arrives in the glass is laser-clean: lime, white peach, crushed stone, the cool mineral hum of primary gneiss. Franz Hirtzberger Jr. now leads the estate his father turned into a Wachau benchmark, and this is the wine that shows you, for not very much money, what the fuss is about.

Setzberg sits on pure gneiss — primary rock, no loess softening — and the resulting wine is all about cool mineral spine and citrus precision rather than tropical opulence. 2024 was a vintage that rewarded patient, healthy fruit, and Hirtzberger's terraced parcels (rebuilt stone by stone over decades) delivered Riesling with serious tension. Expect lime oil, white peach, wet slate, and a long mineral pull that says \"another five years in the cellar wouldn't hurt anyone.\" Franz Jr. now runs the show.

It's the wine that put Franz Hirtzberger Sr. in the global Wachau conversation, and Franz Jr. now stewards it with the same obsessive attention to terrace masonry and harvest timing. 2024 is a vintage of clarity and reserve, and Singerriedel responds with a Smaragd of seismic presence: stone-fruit concentration, citrus oil, wet slate, the savory mineral spine of primary rock.
