Single vineyard Grub in Zöbing, Kamptal
The Ried Grub single vineyard is a kettle site situated between Ried Heiligenstein and Ried Gaisberg, sheltered from prevailing winds on three sides and open to the southwest. The vineyards face southeast and south at elevations ranging from approximately 220 to 360 meters above sea level. The calcareous soil derives from loess and has a loamy-sandy silt texture, locally shaped by erosion with embedded seams of gravel and rubble. Beneath the loess lies the roughly 290-million-year-old Zöbing Formation, composed of calcareous-free siltstones and sandstones that outcrop in places.
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 For over 30 years, the association has stood for the classification of the best single vineyards – as a response to outdated quality criteria such as must weight.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.
Each year, Ried Grub gives us wines with ripe fruit and yet surprising elegance – a single vineyard full of harmony.
