Reviews
Emmerich Knoll 2011 Riesling Kabinett, Pfaffenberg, Kremstal
Rating: 91

Ripe and weighty, this is a rich wine from the Pfaffenberg vineyard in Krems. it has spice as well as perfumed white fruits, a sense of structure and concentration. It feels warm with peach and white fruit flavors likely to develop along with acidity over the next 3-4 years.
