Wachau, Austria

Single vineyard Riesling from the very hottest appellation for that varietal for about $20 Look no further than Kartauserhof's 2005 Riesling Smaragd Achleiten. This wine is intense and powerful, with deep flavors of grapefruit, apricot, pear tart, minerals and white pepper. Spice, creaminess, and acidity create an almost perfect balance.

Only 200 cases produced from a steep-sloped, low-yield, old-vine plot. Uncanny minerality juxtaposed with lemon and green apple notes makes for the perfect aperitif, shellfish or spicy-fusion-cuisine white wine.

The Wall Street Journal just awarded a "VERY GOOD" to the basic Kartauserhof Gruner Veltliner, considering it one of the top six wines of more than 50 wines tasted! Image how a single-vineyard Riesling would have faired in a Riesling comparison! Best of tasting--we certainly think so!



"Case discount price" reflects a 10% case discount (5% on Sparkling Wines) for any mixed-case purchase of 12 bottles or more shipped to a single address. "Special prices" (e.g. on gift sets) are final prices for any order, and these bottles also count toward a 12-bottle minimum to qualify for a case discount. FOR ALL OTHER ORDERS OF FEWER THAN 12 BOTTLES IN TOTAL, REGULAR PRICES WILL BE APPLIED WHEN WE PROCESS YOUR FINAL INVOICE.
