A genuinely aged dry Riesling from one of the Wachau's most legendary vineyards. Prager's Ried Klaus is a tiny, brutally steep terraced site on the eastern edge of Weissenkirchen, with gradients reaching 77 percent and dark gneiss-and-amphibolite soils that make a tightly wound, powerful wine. Smaragd is the Wachau's ripest dry category, and these wines are built to age for decades. At over two decades old, this 2001 is a rare chance to taste mature Austrian Riesling, where the youthful fruit has given way to honeyed, savory complexity. Drink soon while it holds its grace.

Perfect Pairings

Roast pork, schnitzel, smoked fish, or rich poultry and creamy cheeses.

Tasting Profile

Dry, medium to full-bodied Riesling, fully mature: honey, dried apricot, petrol and savory mineral notes replacing the fresh fruit. Bright acidity keeps it lively. Drink now.
