| The Vinyards - The essential piece of the Weingut Bründlmayer |
The mostly terraced vineyards situated far from road traffic are unique
in their diversity. Willi Bründlmayer attaches great importance to the
ecological balance:
Exclusively organic fertilizers are used in the vineyards. The natural
resources – soil, sun, water, plants – are employed simply and
intelligently.
People tend and graft, but do not force themselves into the foreground.
Exhausted vineyards are dug out and left fallow for five years to allow
the soil to recover.
Small water sumps have been provided around the vineyards to prevent
erosion and improve the microclimate. No herbicides of any kind are
used. The choice of vine training method is of utmost importance for
maximum quality.
Willi Bründlmayer trains his vines just over ground level so that the
grapes benefit from the soil heat – the stored and reflected light and
heat from the rock – but high enough that they are not spattered with
wet soil in thunderstorms. |
