Pale yellow green, silver reflections. A hint of meadow herbs, a hint of mango, subtle pear fruit, delicate kumquat zest. Juicy, elegant, white peach, mineral and lemony, nuances of spring onions, fine fruit on the finish, a multi-faceted food companion.

The 2024 Weissburgunder Terrassen Smaragd comes from the Kollmütz, sourced from a vineyard aged between 45 and 60 years. The merest hint of white pear flesh is tender on the nose. Despite being aged only in stainless steel, there is gentle creaminess aligned with ripeness. Still closed, it needs time to unfold but shows beautiful tension and texture.
92 Wine Spectator
There’s depth and richness to the notes of melon, white flowers and blanched almond on a mouthfilling palate, which simmers with flinty mineral details and savory herb tones. Silky in feel, with the long, focused finish dusted in fleur de sel. Drink now through 2030. 100 cases made, 50 cases imported.
