From this high mountain, it was once possible to warn the inhabitants of the city of Krems of approaching enemies—in Middle High German: “Warten.” The massive terraces of the Wachtberg, which face southeast, extend up to an elevation of 400 meters above sea level. Gneiss with schistose sections forms the bedrock, overlaid by thick loess deposits that create calcareous, silt-rich soil.

Tasting Notes from the Cellar Master

The best of slate: an exceptional wine with a fine wealth of aromas. Nuances of fresh Golden Delicious apple, a delicate hint of pear and pleasant herbal spice. Complex and juicy, with ripe honeydew melon on the finish and a fine arc of acidity. Great potential for development.

Food Recommendation from the Cellar Master

A versatile companion to white meat, all kinds of fish and seafood, and asparagus dishes. Thanks to its elegance, it also pairs excellently with somewhat heartier food.

Sommelier bei der Weinverkostung
Pale “candy pink” to salmon colour; on the nose a fine play of fruit with cherries, berries and other fruity notes; on the palate hints of Zweigelt, with elegant, juicy acidity and subtle fruit sweetness creating a charming combination – lively, light-footed and spirited, clean and coquettish, of remarkable quality and well received. A great outdoor wine with the potential to become a favourite at summer barbecues.
