{"product_id":"emmerich-knoll-ried-schutt-autriche","title":"Emmerich Knoll - Ried Schütt - 2022","description":"\u003cp\u003eLocated on the left bank of the Danube, Ried Schütt is one of the emblematic wines of the Wachau Valley, at the foot of the village of Dürnstein in Lower Austria. This vineyard, with its steep terraces facing south and southeast, rests on poor soils of gneiss and schist mixed with stony deposits. The proximity of the river moderates temperature fluctuations, while the cool winds descending from the valley bring a significant temperature range. This environment promotes slow ripening of the grapes and gives the wine a particularly precise and mineral character.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe grapes at Ried Schütt are hand-harvested at full maturity, then carefully sorted before gentle pressing. The must is clarified and then ferments slowly, primarily in large oak casks and stainless steel tanks, to preserve aromatic purity and the expression of the terroir. Aging continues on fine lees in the same containers, adding texture and complexity without masking the characteristic minerality of the wine. Bottling takes place after extended maturation, when the wine displays an optimal balance of freshness, structure, and depth.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003estone fruit\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong\u003eripe citrus\u003c\/strong\u003e , and \u003cstrong\u003ewhite-fleshed fruit\u003c\/strong\u003e , complemented by delicate \u003cstrong\u003efloral\u003c\/strong\u003e touches, subtle \u003cstrong\u003espicy\u003c\/strong\u003e nuances, and a distinctly \u003cstrong\u003emineral\u003c\/strong\u003e dimension. The palate is ample and concentrated, driven by a taut acidity that elongates the structure, with a precise, almost crystalline texture, and a long, saline, and persistent finish that underscores the rocky character of the terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Valade \u0026 Transandine","offers":[{"title":"750ml","offer_id":56582485115228,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Set of 2 bottles (75cl)","offer_id":56582485147996,"sku":null,"price":138.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0284\/0032\/0643\/files\/1152024.png?v=1769589367","url":"https:\/\/www.lebaroudeurduvin.com\/en-ie\/products\/emmerich-knoll-ried-schutt-from-austria","provider":"Le Baroudeur du Vin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
