Pichler, F.X. - Grüner Veltliner Loibner Berg Smaragd 2007

Falstaff: "Mittleres Grüngelb. Feine Anklänge von Blütenhonig, Litschi, Weingartenpfirsich, zart nach Ananas, frische Zitruszesten. Ungemein"

The Wine Advocate: "The Pichlers’ 2007 Gruner Veltliner Smaragd Loibnerberg displays a striking, bitter-sweet floral component, musk melon and lychee aromas, and a stony and savory, saline mineral depth. These elements are allied on the palate to a cool, juicy musk melon, sweet pea, mint, and honeydew melange. While ripe and textually lush, this finishes with a lovely sense of buoyancy along with the aforementioned mineral savor. It should keep well for a decade."

Wine Spectator: "Rich and ripe, with focused flavors of pear, peach, apricot and Fuji apple. The long, luscious finish is filled with creamy and spicy notes. Drink now through 2014. 35 cases imported."
