This small winery is located in the heart of the Kamptal area in the village of Zöbing. Georg Leindl has been in the wine industry for nearly 30 years. After studying food and biotechnology, he went on to be a researcher at the Federal College for Oenology and Pomology at Klosterneuburg. He has also been a oenology consultant, and has worked with and rented space from Austria’s Martin Nigl.
In 2013, he decided to create his own estate in Kamptal, and Weingut Leindl was born. He began with 5 hectares of vines and has recently increased his acreage to 12 hectares. The main focus of the winery is the regional varieties of Grüner Veltliner and Riesling. From these two varieties an array of wines from light, fresh-fruity to single vineyard and reserve wines are vinified. Gelber Muskateller and Viognier complete the range.
THE VINEYARDS
Typical of the 200 to 300 meters high Kamptal are hot days and cool nights in Summer, as well as long sunny Fall periods. These contrasting conditions give the Kamptal wines their incomparable, crystal-clear, mineral character.
Basically, the Kamptal is characterized by the contrast of the funnel-like warming Pannonian influences from the south-east and the cold winds of the Waldviertel coming from the north-west. These contrasts ensure cool nights even after hot days, which is responsible for the particularly fine flavoring of the wines. The long vegetation period in the Kamptal up to late Fall gives the grapes a chance to reach their physiological maturity. In the north the Kamptal is protected from cold spells by the high plateau of the Waldviertel and in the north-east by the Manhartsberg.
The geological conditions in the Kamptal could hardly be more varied: on the one hand the rocks of the Bohemian mass coming in from the west – mainly Gföhler gneiss and glittery schists – but also primary rock, some of it only covered with a thin layer of humus. Like the extremely rare, weathered Wüstensandstein from the Perm, which dominates the heart of the Heiligenstein, they are ideal partners for high-class Rieslings and Grüner Veltliner.
Grüner Veltliner comes from the Seeberg vineyard, and Riesling from the famed Heiligenstein vineyard.
