Lamb (Riede Austria)

A vineyard (site) in the municipality of Kammern in the Lower Austrian wine-growing region of Kamptal. The name has nothing to do with the animal, but is derived from the abundant loam (dialectally "Loam" or "Lahm") found here. It lies on the south-east flank of the famous Zöbinger Heiligenstein vineyard, where this mountain merges into a gentle hill. The south-south-west facing vineyards cover 23 hectares of vines at 213 to 228 metres above sea level with a slope of 0° to 22°. It is one of the hottest sites in the wine-growing region.

Riede Lamm - Kammern im Kamptal

The soil consists of loamy-sandy silt that has formed on deep loess and clay interspersed with silt, volcanic rock and fossilised remains of ferns and bony fish. It has moderate permeability. The Grüner Veltliner variety dominates with 16 hectares of vines, followed by Riesling (3 hectares), Zweigelt, Chardonnay, Neuburger, Traminer and Pinot Blanc. The wineries Brandl Günther, Bründlmayer Willi, Eichinger Birgit, Hirsch Johannes, Jurtschitsch, Retzl Erwin and Schloss Gobelsburg, for example, have shares in the vineyard.

Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
