Common name for vineyards (sites) in Austria. There are 5 vineyards named Nussberg, 4 named Nussberg plus an additional part of the name and 3 named Nußberg. The name refers to a mountain with walnut trees.
The Großlage is named after a small elevation 332 metres above sea level in the north of the Austrian capital Vienna, whereby the city is defined as a generic and specific wine-growing area. The Großlage is located in front of the neighbouring 484 m high Kahlenberg to the north, which is also a large vineyard. To the west and south-west lie the vineyards of the cadastral municipalities of Grinzing, Neustift am Walde and Salmannsdorf.

I have great respect for the scope and quality of the wein.plus encyclopaedia. It is a unique place to go for crisp, sound information on terms from the world of wine.
