2017 Emmerich Knoll Riesling Federspiel
Emmerich Knoll
The fruit comes from flat land on alluvial, sandy soils at an altitude of 220m. The vines are trained on a modified Moser training system and planted to a density of 3,500–4,000 per hectare. Selectively hand harvested. The grapes are slowly airbag pressed as whole clusters, with some skin contact. Fermented with cultured and natural yeast in a mixture of cask and stainless steel tank from 500 to 5,000 litres, depending on batch quantity. Fermented for 5- 10 days at temperatures between 20 and 22 degrees. Lees aged for three months with no bâtonnage. Racked twice all up, and given a light filtration before bottling.

Clean, fresh, vibrant and bright expression here. All white flesh stone fruit, citrus, floral things. Palate is cut and chalky, tense and true, long and fine with a powdery fan of fresh acidity to close. It’s an acid hound’s style here, so let the air flow through your hair as you sip.

Delicate peaches and a lot of vivacity make this medium-bodied dry riesling very attractive and refreshing. Crisp and energizing finish. Drink or hold.
