Weingut Emmerich Knoll is one of the benchmark estates of Austria’s Wachau region, known for producing precise, structured expressions of Grüner Veltliner and Riesling. With Easter this weekend, these are the kinds of whites we reach for. Fresh enough for light spring dishes, but with the structure and depth to carry through the full meal.
Based in Unterloiben, this family-run estate farms steep, terraced vineyards along the Danube, including well-known sites like Loibenberg and Kreutles. The wines are defined by balance and restraint. Fermented slowly and aged with a focus on clarity rather than influence, they show layered fruit, firm acidity, and a distinct mineral backbone. From the lighter, more lifted Federspiel wines to the powerful and age-worthy Smaragd bottlings, Knoll maintains a consistent style built on site expression and longevity.
Recognizable by their Saint Urban labels, Knoll’s wines reflect a deep connection to tradition and a steady, detail-driven approach that has made them one of the most reliable producers in the Wachau.
