Description

Founded in 1792 SALOMON UNDHOF is a wine estate with a long tradition. The Salomon family own 20 hectares of vineyards which are planted with equal amounts of Riesling and Grner Veltliner as well as a tiny amount of ‘Gelber Traminer’ on the best terraced sites along the Danube River in Stein and Krems. Today Bert and Gertrud Salomon run the winery.

Matching each grape variety with the right soil and climate has always been the main focus of Salomon’s Viticultural efforts. The loamy soils offer optimum conditions for Grner Veltliner, while the Riesling from Undhof thrives on primary rock soils in the single vineyards ‘Kgl’ and ‘Pfaffenberg’. These are soils identical with those of the Wachau, which borders on Stein in the west. The Estate’s Grner Veltliner and Riesling distinguish themselves through elegance and consistency. – Importer Note
