The historic centre of the winegrowing region is the city of Krems, which is located in the far west of the Kremstal. From here we\u2019ll organise our excursion to the most famous winegrowing villages &amp; vineyards of the region.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ececec;\">West of Krems<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Pfaffenberg is located in the western part of the city of Krems (more precisely in Krems-Stein). This borders the Wachau, then reaches from Stein to Krems and includes a number of the most famous vineyards of the old wine town, such as Goldberg, Danzern, Grillenparz, Schreck &amp; Hund. Most vineyards are planted on primordial rock, in places covered with a layer of loess, laid out in terraces on steeply sloped hillsides facing the Danube. Riesling grows here on excellent mineral-rich sites, but the greater area is planted to Gr\u00fcner Veltliner. The second prominence of Krems, the Kreuzberg, begins the transition that dominates the area east of Krems all the way into the Wagram: the change from weathered primordial rock to loess. The K\u00f6gl in the west, with its heavily weathered slate, is predestined for graceful &amp; expressive Rieslings, while the Wachtberg with its loess soils, only a few metres distant, has in turn developed into a source of aromatic, expressive Veltliner.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-f3faae1 elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-full_width animated-slow elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"f3faae1\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;,&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;,&quot;animation_tablet&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;,&quot;animation_mobile&quot;:&quot;fadeInRight&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7e4782e\" data-id=\"7e4782e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-9186d76 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"9186d76\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-a035277\" data-id=\"a035277\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-59eb56b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"59eb56b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>North of Krems<\/h2>\n<p>Behind the Pfaffenberg, facing the Waldviertel, lies the Sommerleithen, whose vineyards slope towards the south. It encompasses the majority of the vineyards of Egelsee and extends to Rehberg. Further to the west we first come across Ried Kremsleiten, whose imposing terraces of primordial rock and sandy topsoils face south and southwest. There is no question that King Riesling is number one here. From there we proceed northward toward the high plateau and thus to the well-known clay-soil sites between Imbach &amp; Senftenberg: the vineyards Pfenningberg, Pellinger, Hoch\u00e4cker, Rammeln and the picturesque Ehrenfels, directly below the ruins at Senftenberg. What they all have in common is the crystalline subsoil and, thanks to the particularly dramatic differences between day &amp; nighttime temperatures, a distinctively delicate and cool, racy flavour profile \u2013 from which Veltliner &amp; Riesling benefit in equal measure.<\/p>\n<p>On the plateau to the east are the vineyards Kiesling and G\u00e4rtling, halfway between Imbach &amp; Stratzing, a winegrowing town northeast of Krems. A little further to the northwest, above Senftenberg, come the wine villages Priel and then Dross, at the edge of the Gf\u00f6hler Forest, which demarcates the border of the winegrowing region toward the Waldviertel &amp; the Kamptal.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7aebb0a elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"7aebb0a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-bc77af6\" data-id=\"bc77af6\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-227ea50 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"227ea50\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-22acfd elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-full_width animated-slow elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"22acfd\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;,&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInRight&quot;,&quot;animation_tablet&quot;:&quot;fadeInRight&quot;,&quot;animation_mobile&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5486b11c\" data-id=\"5486b11c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8d96661 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"8d96661\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-66 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-20a3840a\" data-id=\"20a3840a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-2a712584 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"2a712584\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-70d6e081\" data-id=\"70d6e081\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4cd04047 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4cd04047\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" id=\"klimaboden\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2><span style=\"color: #ececec;\">East of Krems<\/span><\/h2><p>The eastern end of the Krems River Valley is characterised by loess soils, where the bluffs reach a remarkable thickness &amp; depth, especially in the communities of Rohrendorf &amp; Gedersdorf.

Flur Herrentrost (forty-six hectares) in Thallern and Brunnkirchen includes the vineyard sites Steinhagen, Brunnfeld, Herrentrost &amp; Satzen. Weissburgunder &amp; Gr\u00fcner Veltliner grow on the gravel and loess soils. Further to the west lies the expanse of Flur Frauengrund (68 ha) in Angern &amp; Thallern on pure loess, which mostly yields full-bodied Gr\u00fcner Veltliner. Its individual vineyard sites are Maring, Schwerer Zapfen and Frauengrund. The Kremser Kogl (117 ha) near Hollenburg consists of conglomerate soil with loess layers of variable depth, where expressive Gr\u00fcner Veltliner with good cellaring potential is harvested. Important vineyards: In Schr\u00f6tten, Point, Hahn, Hollenburgern, In Schiefern, Neubergern, Langen-Hadinger, Kleedorf, Kogl, Lusthausberg, Wolfsberg, Holz\u00e4cker &amp; Brunngraben.<\/p>\n<p>Around the magnificent baroque Benedictine abbey Stift G\u00f6ttweig there are numerous wine villages such as Furth, Palt and the somewhat hidden-away towns &amp; hamlets Paudorf.

The most prominent red wine is vinified from Zweigelt.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Although the Kremstal is home to many excellent wines from various Qualit\u00e4tswein varieties, Gr\u00fcner Veltliner &amp; Riesling are undeniably the most important among them. They form the backbone of the portfolio for every successful winegrowing operation in the region and provide the substance behind the Kremstal\u2019s excellent reputation, which is why the region\u2019s protected designation of origin is limited to these two leading varieties. But the Kremstal does not turn away from diversity: Pinot family varieties Weissburgunder &amp; Chardonnay thrive particularly well on calcareous soils in the Kremstal, while Sauvignon Blanc is expanding its surface area; ideal terroirs for rarities such as Traminer and Roter Veltliner can be found, especially in the far east of the winegrowing region.<\/p>\n<p>The top red wine here is clearly the Zweigelt. Cabernet Sauvignon &amp; Merlot have caught up a bit in recent years; the red Pinot-family varieties are also represented in the Kremstal with Pinot Noir &amp; Sankt Laurent.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-2617c1da elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-full_width animated-slow elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"2617c1da\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;,&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;,&quot;animation_tablet&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;,&quot;animation_mobile&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-474b2633\" data-id=\"474b2633\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-6bda712d elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6bda712d\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-365d90ce\" data-id=\"365d90ce\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-765fd617 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"765fd617\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Grape varieties in numbers:<\/p>\n<p>The winegrowing region Kremstal area now has an area under vines of 2,368 hectares, which represents some 5.2% of the Austrian viticultural landscape. 82% is planted with white grapes, 18% with red grapes.
