Smaragd is the name for the best, most treasured wines from the Vinea Wachau-members. The alcohol content of these wines begin at 12.5% by volume. This, along with the highest grape ripeness and natural concentration are what make this world-class designation possible. Emerald-coloured Idex lizards – also known as Smaragd - are at home in the terraced vineyards of the Wachau. On bright, sunny days, their beauty is highlighted dramatically as they bask in the gleaming sun next to the grapevines – the perfect symbol for the absolute top Wachau wines with full physiological ripeness.

  • Complete description

    Vintage Description:

    The 2019 Riesling Schütt is very clear, refined and crystalline on the elegant and coolish but dense and complex nose. Filigreed, very pure and salty on the palate, this is a highly elegant, finessed and coolish style again, even in a warm and dry vintage like 2019. A terrific Riesling! Highly stimulating. (Stephan Reinhardt - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, Dec. 2021)
