Hund

Vineyard or site in the municipality of Krems-Stein in the Lower Austrian wine-growing region of Kremstal. The south-facing steep vineyards with slopes of up to 50% are laid out in stone terraces. They have massive crystalline and conglomerate soils with partly sandy loess layers. An artificial irrigation system protects against drought damage. The varieties Riesling, Grüner Veltliner and Neuburger are cultivated here. Shares in the vineyard are held, for example, by the wineries Kirchmayr Andreas (until its dissolution), Nikolaihof and Stagård.

Kremstal Rieden: Grillenparz (oberhalb Straße), Hund (unterhalb), Kögl (dahinter)

There is a vast number of sources on the web where one can acquire knowledge about wine. But none has the scope, timeliness and accuracy of the information in the encyclopaedia at wein.plus. I use it regularly and rely on it.
