Emmerich Knoll Riesling Pfaffenberg Selektion 2024

From paragneiss soils just across the regional border in Krems, this Pfaffenberg Selektion opens with smoke and passion fruit, an arresting combination that sets the tone. Juicy and stony on entry, it has that stripped-back quality Knoll achieves so naturally, where nothing feels superfluous yet the wine remains silky and inviting. Zesty citrus lifts the mid-palate, while a firm mineral thread keeps everything taut and focused through the finish. Aromatic, precise, and genuinely exquisite.
