The Dürnsteiner Kellerberg is the paragon for a top single vineyard in the winegrowing region Wachau. Manual cared vines are grown on south-eastern facing terraces made with natural stone walls. The soil is dominated by Orthogneiss. A long vegetation period caused by cool airstreams during nights is resulting in a late harvest. This microclimatic combination is creating wines combining refinement and power in a matchless kind. Wines commonly are  restrained and alluring, full-bodied and savoury at the same time, but always multi-layered with lot of depth.

Vivid green-yellow, discreet and delicate fruit in the nose, apricots and white peaches at its best, not heavy but pure and elegant with marvelous acidity, big future!
