Steiner Kögl 1ÖTW
South-facing, narrow dry stone terraces behind the old town of Stein and protected from westerly winds by Steiner Schreck and Kremser Kreuzberg. The soil on the mica schists is stony and extremely poor. Only in the uppermost part of the slope is there a thin, sandy-silty layer with a clear lime content over the weathered crystalline rocks on the slope, the "Urgestein".
