Dechant

Riede (vineyard) in the municipality of Langenlois in the Lower Austrian wine-growing region of Kamptal. The name refers to a former church property. The relatively flat vineyard covers a total of 60 hectares of vines, with the 15-hectare centrepiece facing south-east. It is sheltered from the wind from the north-east. The soils consist of brown earth mixed with clay on crystalline primary rock. The roots have to make their way down through the hard rock. The water supply is optimal. The main varieties grown here are Grüner Veltliner,Pinot Noir and Merlot. The Bründlmayer Willi, Jurtschitsch and Loimer Fred wineries, for example, have shares in the vineyard.
