Recork - WBS

"Because of our experience that nature is the strongest force, we’d love to work with it. With the knowledge that the soil is the most intelligent part we deal with, we‘ve decided to trust in it. We are convinced that the plants nourish our soil, therefore we let them grow. With these ideas and confidence we don‘t interact in the cellar, which causes that our wines transport the natural taste of the grape. These decisions we make by ourselves and let our personalities speak in our wines."

climate

Kamptal is a cool climate region in the North East of Austria;

cold winds from the north highlands meet in the Kamptal with the panonian climate. Very high temperature changes from the night and day bring thick skins of the berries wich leads to stronger aromas and vibrant acidity. Microclimates change from hillsides to hillsides and vineyard to vinegards. Altitudes range from 200 to nearly 500 metres. Small valleys between the hills work like channels where cold winds from the northern regions chill down the vineyards during the nights...

Strass has a very special microclimate because it has the first south faced slopes near the flat of the Danube. It‘s a unique combination of the very old mother rock of the Bohemian Massive and the particular influence of the Pannonian climate.

Kima

Das Kamptal ist eine kühle Region im Nordosten Österreichs; Kalte Winde vom Böhmischen Massiv des Nordens treffen im Kamptal auf Pannonisches Klima. Hohe Temperaturunterschiede zwischen Tag und Nacht fördern dicke Beerenschalen und bringen starke, intensive Aromen und vibrierende Lebendigkeit. Von Weingarten zu Weingarten ändert sich das Mikroklima enorm. Die Höhe der einzelnen Weinlagen reichen zwischen 200 und 500 Metern; Der Ort Strass hat ein sehr spezielles Mikroklima, da hier die ersten Weinberge neben der Donauebene hochragen. Es ist eine einzigartige Kombination aus dem sehr kühlen Böhmischen Massiv und dem Einfluss des Pannonischen Klimas.
