Vineyard
Vineyard Site
This vineyard, which has a north-easterly aspect, is located on a broad terrace formed by a former watercourse of the Danube River. The site was first documented (in 1562) as ‘Silberpiegl’, and later became known as ‘Silberbügl’, and then ‘Silberbichl’ or ‘Silberbühel’. The underlying sandy Danube river gravels are overlain by loess and loess-derived loam, and then in turn by calcareous soils. The name ‘Silber’ (silver) refers to the abundance of mica crystals in the soil – large fragments of which are found in the deeper lying areas, catching the evening sun.
