WTN: The Grassy Knoll

[David M. Bueker]

2016 Weingut Knoll Grüner Veltliner Smaragd Ried Schütt - Austria, Niederösterreich, Wachau (11/12/2019)
No advance decant, but enticing from first pour, the richness of depth of the wine is obvious. It shows more elegance on the palate, with crisp acidity underscoring fresh pear and green pea notes. The aromatics grow even fresher as time goes on, while the mid palate fleshes out. This is a potentially monumental wine that is very early in its life.
