Notes From Weingut Knoll:

"Hardly any other winery has shaped the perception of the Wachau as a high-quality wine-growing region as much as that of the Knoll family. Viticulture has been practiced for generations, the first bottles were filled in the 1950s, Austria's most famous label, the baroque motif of St. Urban, was first stuck onto a bottle of Knoll wine in 1962.

Today the family farms 16 hectares, including vineyards that have long since become common property in the minds of local and international wine drinkers: Kellerberg, Loibenberg, Pfaffenberg and above all the Schütt form the basis for Rieslings and Veltliners, which are fundamentally clear, precise, mineral and structured and often only fully reveal their potential years and decades later."

 About the cuvee, from importer Circo Vino:

"Typically harvested from Knoll’s vineyards in and around the town of Unterloiben, this Riesling falls under the Vinea Wachau’s second tier of quality classification, known as Federspiel.  Wines in the Federspiel category must have an alcohol content between 11.5% and 12.5% by volume."
