"The 2023 Grüner Veltliner Paragon is powerful and concentrated, with a honeyed richness that frames complex layers of wintergreen, truffle, white mushroom, white pepper and green apple. Oily and viscous in feel, it carries striking grip and drive, with penetrating aromatics that leave a lasting impression. I find this wildly distinctive."

"While typically produced in a Federspiel style, the 2023 Grüner Veltliner Paragon approaches Smaragd ripeness in the vintage. It opens with a beautifully complex nose of tropical citrus, papaya, beeswax and basil aromas, followed by a textural yet vibrant palate underpinned by a mineral-driven rudder and a finish that lingers with oceanic nuances."
