Weingut Knoll, “Kreutles” Grüner Veltliner Federspiel
Quite simply one of the best QPRs (quality/price ratio) you’ll ever see for an elite-level white wine that can age. The precise minerality derived from Knoll’s estate soils is just one factor of many that contribute to the complexity found in the glass. Emmerich Knoll III is an incredible steward of his third-generation family estate—although their restaurant has been in continuous operation for over four centuries! Emmerich embraces traditional winemaking techniques and feels it is crucial to heap ample attention to the unique holdings in his vineyards while exercising minimal intervention in the cellar. This is a sommelier cult favorite and a benchmark expression of Grüner Veltliner from the Wachau. Impeccable, crystalline, lip-smacking white wine!
