Our SELECTED SINGLE VINEYARDS around Halbturn
Our selected single vineyards (Rieden) are located around the municipality of Halbturn in the north-east of the Neusiedlersee wine-growing region, on the Wagram rather unknown wine mountain range, which stretches from Neusiedl am See to Halbturn. "The Wagram is the southern steep slope of the Parndorfer Platte. The Parndorfer Platte is a gravel surface that was heaped up by the Danube about two million years ago and the Neusiedler Basin then sank about 13,000 years ago - this is how the Wagram came into being" (quote: geographer Ulrike Lercher).
The wine-growing region of Lake Neusiedl (6,239 hectares) stretches from Neusiedl over the hills of the wine town of Gols and the flat Heideboden to the Seewinkel.

"The selected single vineyard Ried Kaiserberg was first mentioned in a document as early as 1669 and is therefore the oldest continuously planted selected single vineyard in the area.
The wind-open, southeast-facing slope is characterized by silty-clayey to loamy deposits with some sandy inclusions. The soils are deep and very calcareous. "(AWM Riedenkarte)
Selected single vineyard Ried Lehendorf
Seleced single vineyard Ried Lehendorf, Halbturn / Neusiedlersee
The longest vineyards can be found in the selected single vineyard Ried Lehendorf site.
"Lehendorf was the name of a deserted settlement that was abandoned in the late Middle Ages. It lies to the east of the municipality and is particularly known for its long vineyards (up to 1km). There are both warm gravelly soils, but also loam and black earth to be found. As a result, ideal conditions are found here for the region's leading variety, Blauer Zweigelt, as well as for Pinot Noir. Due to the structure of the soil, Sauvignon Blancs, Burgundy varieties and the Gelber Muskateller also thrive in the selected single vineyard Ried Lehendorf. " (ÖWM vineyard maps)
