Vineyard practices organic farming methods. Fruit is coming from vines that are 10-32-years-old. Andi Knauss took over the reins at Weingut Knauss in 2004. The vineyards are worked naturally, and winemaking is careful and conscientious. These hills are composed of different types of limestone of different eras, basically layered on top of each other, changing with the altitude, between 300 and 400 meters above sea level. Natural fermentation and minimal sulfur are the norms throughout the range, and some cuvées see no sulfur at all.
