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.
