TERROIR
Mica-schist and “Leithakalk” – a unique regional marine limestone – are the geological gems for viticulture in the region. Hard, meagre mica-schist forces vines to drive their roots deep and concentrate their vigour in just a small quantity of fruit. Limestone comprised of fossils of ancient marine crustaceans from millions of years ago lends the wines depth and unique mineral character. Many days of sunshine paired with cool nights along with the proximity to Lake Neusiedl and the forested slopes of the Leitha Mountains lend refreshing vibrancy. This comprises a terroir that is unique in the world.
