Sommelier recommends

“Vīnam raksturīgas greipfrūta, dzelteno augļu un minerālu aromāts, kurā izceļas aprikožu un ābolu nianses. Garša ir sabalansēta, sulīga, ar augstu skābumu un zaļo ābolu niansēm.” – Ronalds Pētersons, “Noble Wine” someljē

Knoll “Loibner” Grüner Veltliner Steinfeder 2024 is a fresh and elegant white wine from Austria's renowned Wachau region. Crafted from 100% Grüner Veltliner grown in the vineyards surrounding Loiben, it beautifully reflects the unique Danube Valley microclimate and mineral-rich soils. Steinfeder is the lightest classification within the Wachau quality system, representing vibrant, refreshing wines with moderate alcohol and expressive fruit. The 2024 vintage showcases remarkable freshness, crisp acidity, and pure fruit expression, making it an ideal wine for both everyday enjoyment and food pairing.

There is hardly another vineyard that has shaped the perception of the Wachau as a serious high-quality wine-growing region as strongly as that of the Knoll family. Many generations of this family have dedicated their lives to growing wine: the first glass bottles were filled with Knoll wine in the 1950s, and the arguably most famous wine label in Austria – the family’s trademark baroque image of Saint Urban – first graced the Knoll wine bottles in 1962. The family cultivates wine on sixteen hectares, and the names of his terraces have become common knowledge among both national and international wine drinkers: the Kellerberg, Loibenberg, Pfaffenberg and especially the Schütt yield the fruit for the famous range of Knoll Riesling and Veltliner, which are all clear, precise, mineral-rich and structured, frequently revealing their full potential after years or even decades.

The bouquet reveals lemon zest, green apple, lime, and white flower aromas layered with white pepper, fresh herbs, and delicate mineral notes. Light-bodied, juicy, and elegantly structured on the palate, the wine offers lively acidity, crisp fruit flavours, and a clean mineral finish.

Perfect with light appetisers, salads, asparagus, seafood, grilled white fish, sushi, and fresh goat cheese. Its freshness and vibrant minerality make it an excellent companion to seasonal and delicately flavoured dishes.

Grüner Veltliner wines are well textured, but very refreshing and crispy, focused on minerality and citrus character. With time they soften and take in honeyed, candied fruit-like flavors that match their deep golden hue.
This is the story of how one of the most exciting wine regions in Austria came into being. For millions of years, the Danube River has carved its serpentine path through solid soils, and today the rocky terraces provide places for growing grapes. Two grape varieties are mainly cultivated in this region: Riesling and Grüner Veltliner.
