The Irbling area stretches from 320 to 380 metres in altitude. This south-facing site, which slopes steeply for the most part, lies in the climatic field of tension between extreme soil warming and cold air currents at night. The vineyard lies on the foothills of the Waldviertel gneiss-slate plateau, which is characteristic for the terroir of these wines. These are ideal conditions for fine Rieslings.
