Ried SCHÖN

Everything began with this vineyard across from the village of Viessling. We purchased our first small parcel here in 2013 – eight completely wild and overgrown terraces that had lay abandoned for 10 years. After clearing the shrubs and trees and restacking 120 square metres of dry stone walls, we planted a selection of local Grüner Veltliner cuttings from Wachau vintners in 2014.

The Schön vineyard is based on dark schist and paragneiss with deep topsoil that is predestined for Grüner Veltliner. Like all of our sites, our parcels in the Schön vineyard are cultivated manually. We apply only sulphur, copper, compost, biodynamic preparations and plant infusions. The first harvest took place in 2018.
