"The 2025 Grüner Veltliner Kreutles Smaragd, grown on a mix of loam and eroded gneiss, is very shy on the nose. The palate shows bright acidity, beautifully supported by a creamy, yeasty core on a slender, smooth body that is svelte yet concentrated. This wine has fine mid-palate presence and contour, a seamless combination of full ripeness and pristine freshness." —Anne Krebiehl MW

More about Alzinger

Based in Unterloiben, the Alzinger family is one of the Wachau's quiet masters. Leo Alzinger Sr. began bottling the family's wines in 1983, and his son Leo Jr. now runs the estate. Their holdings include the great Loibenberg and Steinertal vineyards and Hollerin, facing the Kellerberg, on Gföhl gneiss soils. Single-vineyard Grüner Veltliners and Rieslings of crystalline purity and restraint, with serious structure. Minimalism in the cellar is maximalism on the palate.
