His fear was that heavy replanting of just a few clones across Austria was leading to a rapid loss of the grape's once vast biodiversity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eMost Grüner Veltliner is planted at low elevation, in fertile soils, at low density to produce easy-drinking, if somewhat innocuous, high-volume juice. Here we have the opposite. Besides the inherent complexity of 110 different biotypes, the vines are planted at high density, in meager-soiled, terraced vineyards with often less than half the normal yields—and even then they struggle to ripen, pushing harvest well into autumn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis has become one of Austria's most sought-after wines for its intense structure, deep concentration, and filigreed aromatics, all with a leaner, more acid-driven profile. It's drinking beautifully now but will go the distance in your cellar should you choose to hold onto it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\"\u003cem\u003e...A suspicion of flintiness opens the nose, followed by shyness, reticence and stoniness. The palate offers the yeasty mid-palate savor of Grüner and a beautiful lightness, with a flow that is compact but complete, fresh and elongated. 95 Points\u003c\/em\u003e\" — By Anne Krebiehl, MW, Vinous\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Winebow [WBW]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46477385695289,"sku":"NYC-4-WBW-`30336845`-091026-5","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/Prager-Gruner-Veltliner-Smaragd-Wachstum-Bodenstein-ETA-91726-2024-White-Wine-Flatiron-Wines-Spirits-New-York.jpg?v=1789051185","url":"https:\/\/nyc.flatiron-wines.com\/products\/prager-gruner-veltliner-smaragd-wachstum-bodenstein-eta-91726-2024-750ml","provider":"Flatiron Wines \u0026 Spirits NYC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
