Above the town center of Klosterneuburg, on the Buchberg hill, lies the Haschberg vineyard. The barren soil, characterized by Klosterneuburg marble (a type of calcareous marl), and the dry, hot microclimate define this south-facing slope. A constant, gentle breeze ensures healthy grapes. These are ideal conditions for cultivating Roter Veltliner, which, thanks to the dry and barren ground can reach full ripeness here without the risk of noble rot. Grüner Veltliner, Sauvignon Blanc, and Donauriesling from this vineyard are also characterized by their minerality despite their full ripeness and their distinctive fruitiness.
