92The Wine Advocate

Scintillating scents & profuse juiciness of fresh lime, red raspberry, snap pea & honeydew suffused with metaphorically cooling mint & thyme... irresistible, luscious refreshment... One of the best-ever instantiations of Muhlpoint Smaragd.

TYPE

White Wine, Grüner Veltliner, Smaragd

This white grape is widely grown in Austria, Czech Republic and Slovakia. As a wine, it is food friendly and has beaten top Chardonnays in blind tastings. It compares to a white Burgundy in richness and texture, and offers an exotic alternative to Sauvignon Blanc.
