THE VINEYARDS OF CARNUNTUM are not spread out upon precipitous slopes or nestled in dramatic geologic formations, but rather set in the rolling hills that the primordial sea and the meandering Danube formed millions of years a go. Each one of these hills has its own unique geologic history, its own particular exposition and thus its own distinctive flavour. Here in Carnuntum, for many years we have focussed our efforts upon producing cuvées, marrying wines from various soils and different grape varieties into complex works of viticultural art. But currently there is a new process underway in our region: rethinking this, considering how we might articulate the distinctive characters of the individual sites, and allow these to express themselves in a pure fashion.
In the next step, we want to reawaken the distinctive voices of the individual municipalities. As they expressed themselves in earlier times. This process will evolve over many years, a voyage of development leading us back to the origins of our region.
CARNUNTUM DAC.
Sehr lange haben sich die Carnuntiner mit dem Herkunftsystem beschäftigt. Es ist ja gar nicht so einfach alle unter einen Hut zu bekommen. Aber das Ergebnis ist zukunftsorientiert und vor allem eines: gemeinschaftlich. Wir sind uns sicher, dass Carnutnum hiermit ein klares Profil verliehen wird. Unsere Weine gliedern sich in Lagenweine, Ortsweine und Gebietsweine. Innerhalb der Pyramide arbeiten wir mit fünf DAC Rebsorten: Zweigelt, Blaufränkisch, Chardonnay, Weißburgunder und Grüner Veltliner.
