Steiner Pfaffenberg 1ÖTW
Steep, southeast-facing location, very close to the Danube, thus strongly exposed to wind and temperature extremes. The bedrock consists of crystalline rocks, "primary rocks" such as Gföhler gneiss, mica schist and amphibolite in places, the soils are correspondingly stony, hard and mostly free of lime.
