SKOFF<br />

ORIGINAL<br />

Walter Skoff, known among the pundits<br />

as “Mr. Sauvignon”, is with his<br />

over thirty years experience one of<br />

the top vintners in Südsteiermark. In 2017, the<br />

Concours Mondial du Sauvignon honoured<br />

the Sauvignon Blanc Kranachberg 2015 as<br />

world champion, catapulting Walter Skoff<br />

into the league of top Sauvignon Blanc producers<br />

in the world. This is the producer’s<br />

greatest success to date. His masterpieces are<br />

awarded national and international accolades<br />

each year and Skoff can count over 800<br />

awards received over the past 30 years, 300 of<br />

which are gold medals. Despite this, it is this<br />

title as world champion that crowns his path<br />

of success and inspires his continued euphoria<br />

for wine. Walter Skoff also won two gold and<br />

five silver medals the world’s largest international<br />

wine competition, the AWC. Of particular<br />

mention is that it was the vintage 2014<br />

Sauvignon Blanc Royal and Sauvignon Blanc<br />

Obegg that achieved the gold medals. Walter<br />

Skoff’s winery has 13 top sites with different<br />

terroirs that yield special wines with unique<br />

fruitiness and strong character. Weingut Skoff<br />
