Vineyard Site
Austria's Burgundy; Sankt Laurent is directly descended from Pinot Noir (Blauburgunder), and has adapted to the regional climate over the centuries.
The wines are very full of character and excellent food companions. The care in the vineyard is elaborate and difficult, therefore the variety is only cultivated on a small scale.
