The Pfaffenberg vineyard straddles the Wachau and Kremstal districts, and descends to the town of Stein. The peak altitude is 550 meters and the exposure is south-east. The soil in the Pfaffenberg is a few inches of decomposed rock over primary, gneiss bedrock. Because of the steepness of the slope, the vineyards are terraced and rows are planted across the slope. The Pfaffenberg wines are refined, pure and elegant, and very long, with vivid minerality underpinning the citrus and white peach fruit.
