Soil Structure and Natural Features
The vineyards of the Wachau line terraces along the Danube (Donau) River. Lower, east-facing vineyards typically contain sandy loess soils, whereas the steeper, higher vineyards (450 meters and above) are characterized by shallow soils and a higher proportion of the underlying Gföhl gneiss and other primary rock.
