The renowned Domäne Wachau winery is one of Austria’s leading producers and stands for sustainable viticulture, uncompromising quality and an authentic interpretation of the unique Wachau terroir.

The 2025 vintage impresses with its expressiveness, elegant structure and exceptional precision. The ‘Smaragd’ designation represents the highest quality level in the Wachau and denotes powerful, long-lived wines with great ageing potential.

As a high-quality Wachau Riesling, it is an excellent accompaniment to sophisticated dishes and develops additional elegance and complexity after a few years’ bottle ageing. For lovers of great Austrian white wines and characterful Riesling Smaragd wines, this DAC wine from the Wachau is an excellent choice.
