The terroir here is also incredibly special, with a unique geology of sandstone, volcanic rock, and also loam and loess. This unique composition creates a very distinctive Gruner Veltliner grape. With this Birgit Eichinger Gruner Veltliner Ried Lamm, the winemaker proves she belongs among the absolute top performers in the Kamptal wine region; something Birgit Eichinger has always aspired to.
