A hillside sloping to the Southwest. The tertiary sandy sediment (originating several million years ago) is one of our warmest vineyards. Ideal for Merlot. The wines are very complex and mature.

Our top hillside vineyard for Pinot Noir. Scheibner is a brown-earth soil extremely rich in lime, which particularly in the stratum of the main roots has a high coarse matter (rock) content. This is a great advantage mainly in wet years, as the stones enable faster drainage and the Pinot Noir can so mature ideally and the grapes have smaller berries.

Our top vineyard sloping to the South. This sandy loam soil has a fine gravel layer on top, deriving from the "primeval" Danube, with lime and mineral-rich tertiary layers below. Wines from this vineyard (Zweigelt and Merlot) are characterized by extreme delicacy, length and structure.

A type of soil dominated by loess, which has formed always at the footslope and around the village. Loess is the most recent type of soil which was moved here by the wind roughly ten thousand years ago (last ice age). Loess always contains limestone and is thus excellently suited for Grüner Veltliner, Zweigelt and Pinot Noir.
