Professional reviews

James Suckling (97)

This full-bodied white has exotic aromas of wildflower honey, pineapple, candied citrus and some tobacco. Ripe and complex, but it remains pristine and focused, with a very long, firm and powerful finish. Try after 2026.

Vinous (95)

The 2024 Grüner Veltliner Loibner Vinothekfüllung Smaragd is picked across the estate's sites—this year Kreutles, Loibenberg and a little Kellerberg—from the ripest fruit, with the tiniest proportion of botrytis. The nose is shy and does not yet want to show its charm. The palate is creamy, smooth and rich with yeast, wonderfully rich with white miso savoriness, flowing and textured. This really needs time. The beauty is the equanimity, the balance and the richness that has not an ounce of fat.
