LOIBNER BERG – This is one
of the steepest and most austere primitive-rock sites encountered in Loiben.
The Loibner Berg, Wachau’s largest coherent single vineyard, is
fully exposed to the south and accordingly warm. The wines derived from
this site are shaped by the unique composition of this first-class soil,
which imparts longevity to them. Here, opulent, intense and yet subtle
wines develop – Riesling showing a fruity texture (peach, apricot)
and Grüner Veltliner being full-bodied with underlying minerality,
even slightly smoky and tobaccoy notes.
