BACK
Diverse contrasts concentrated in a small area have given rise to a unique wine region of rare beauty,
distinguished by its soil formations and its subtle microclimate,
setting it apart from all other vineyard areas in Europe.
The Pannonian climate zone extends into the Wachau from the east in a tongue-like shape.
From the heights of the Dunkelsteinerwald south of the Danube and the Waldviertel in the north, cooler, more humid, and oxygen-rich air masses flow down through small, forested stone valleys—the Wachau “Gräben.”
This creates an almost constant air circulation, which significantly influences the development of aroma in the grapes
and, together with the sparse ancient rock soils, shapes the character of the wines produced here.
