Weingut Knoll Ried Loibenberg Smaragd Riesling 2032 is a full-bodied, single-vineyard white wine from the Wachau region of Austria. Since Weingut Knoll launched in the 1950s, it has been instrumental in shaping Wachau’s reputation as a serious, high-quality wine-growing region. Knoll has 18 hectares of vineyards along the slopes of the Danube river in Wachau. Loibenberg is the warmest vineyard Knoll works with; it is south-facing and the terraces reflect the heat. This makes for a charming and generous expression of Grüner Veltliner and Riesling. From this 2023 Smaragd Riesling, expect notes of sweet citrus, delicate peach and orange blossom. The wine is elegant and juicy on the palate, with fine acid structure, yellow peach fruit and a very long, zesty finish.

Unterloiben. Big, warm vineyard, nearly 36 ha ranging west to south-east. Certified Sustainable Austria.
Intense lime inscribed with salinity. Very dense, compact, the fruit encased in stony mineral tones. Give it time to emerge; the fruit inside feels pristine, fresh, alive. Going back to it, it's really intensely salty. In a good way. (TQT) — Tara Q Thomas, 13th September 2024

Vinous
The 2023 Riesling Loibenberg Smaragd immediately beguiles with ripe, aromatic, fresh tangerine zestiness. The palate is milder than the nose suggests but offers a juicy, aromatic, beautifully tingling mandarin and clementine purity with immense juiciness. More air allows the citrus aromas to unfold and become even more beguiling, still showing yeasty savor but opening up into shining ripeness without a hint of heaviness.
