Ried Lamm single vineyard in Kammern, Kamptal
Located at the southeastern foot of the Heiligenstein hill, this single vineyard ranks among the warmer sites in the Kamptal. The calcareous soil, a loamy-sandy silt, rests on loess. In the upper sections, sandstone of the Zöbing Formation emerges, marking the geological transition to Heiligenstein. This structure lends the wines density and power, while the site imparts elegance and fine spice. The result is expressive, complex wines that already impress in their youth and develop even greater depth over time.
Quality that grows.
Single vineyard wines are the most precise reflection of their origin. They speak of the interplay between soil, single vineyard and microclimate – expressing the distinctiveness of each Ried with depth and complexity.
Village wines reveal the typical character of their place of origin. They combine regional influence with the distinctive geological and climatic characteristics of the area – a clear expression of terroir.
Fruity, fresh and crisp – the regional wines exemplify Kamptal. Shaped by cool nights, sunny days and the valley’s diverse influences, they bring the regional style authentically into the glass.
The Kamptal DAC region is shaped by the dynamic interplay of two climatic poles: warm, Pannonian air currents from the southeast meet cool breezes from the northwestern Waldviertel. These contrasts ensure fresh nights, a long growing season, and delicate aromatic expression. With approximately 550 mm of rainfall and an average annual temperature of 10 °C, stable conditions arise in which expressive wines can thrive.
What began as an initiative of a few winemakers became the voice for clear origin and true quality: The Austrian Traditional Wineries. For over 30 years, the association has stood for the classification of the best single vineyards – as a response to outdated quality criteria such as must weight. We too are part of this movement that recognizes origin as a genuine mark of quality.
Ried Lamm fascinates me anew each year – so much power, and yet such a fine balance.
