Knoll Riesling Loibenberg Smaragd 2023 0,75l

Riesling Ried Loibenberg Smaragd from Weingut Knoll is grown on steep stone terraces in one of the Wachau s most celebrated sites. The bouquet offers candied citrus peel, yellow peach, hints of mango and pineapple, herbal notes and blossom honey. On the palate the Smaragd is juicy, dense and complex, with a tightly woven texture and precise acidity. Stony hillside minerality brings cool depth and salty tension. Ripe stone fruit and citrus brightness create a long, arching finish. The aftertaste is persistent, mineral and finely spicy. A profound Riesling for expressive fish dishes, refined Asian flavours and mature hard cheese.

Nine months in large oak casks give this Riesling calm and structure while keeping fruit and minerality clearly in focus.

Knoll

Above the stone terraces of Unter-Loiben in Austria’s Wachau, the Knoll estate turns continuity into precision. Viticulture has been part of the family story since 1825; the first bottles appeared in the 1950s, and since 1962 the baroque Saint Urban label has become one of the region’s most recognisable signatures. As a member of Vinea Wachau, the house helped define what classic Wachau can be....

The grape variety: Riesling

Riesling is a noble white grape famous for citrus fruit, stone fruit, floral notes and vibrant acidity. It can be dry, off-dry, sparkling or beautifully sweet.

Its freshness makes it ideal with seafood, pork, spicy Asian cuisine, cheeses and desserts. Riesling is one of the most expressive and versatile white wine grapes.
