Franz Hirtzberger Axpoint Grüner Veltliner Smaragd 2024 is a single-vineyard white wine from the renowned Axpoint site in the Wachau valley. This vintage benefits from loess and clay soils, creating a defined structure with layers of complexity. The wine showcases notes of white pepper and yellow stone fruit, alongside hints of mineral essence. It is produced the Smaragd style, marked by a fuller body and a lingering saline finish. Established in 1996, Franz Hirtzberger focuses on sustainable practices, reflecting a deep respect for the terroir. The Axpoint vineyard is noted for its dry microclimate and southern exposure, contributing to the character of the wines produced.

The 2024 Grüner Veltliner Axpoint Smaragd comes from deep loess, serving as a counterpoint to Rotes Tor. Its shy nose gives very little away. The palate is gentle in savor, with a subtle touch of white asparagus and a tender hint of mild miso, all presented on a super-smooth body. Juicy zestiness appears on the finish, along with a little heat. Anne Krebiehl12th June 2025
