Dating back to 1722, Weingut Malat is a historic family estate with vineyards in Kremstal and the Wachau. Today led by Michael Malat, the domaine is built around purity of fruit and site expression, with a clear focus on dry wines shaped by their origins and future-facing varietal choices.
Viticulture >
Located in the Kremstal region, the Malat Estate sits on the hillside of Gottweiger Berg where the vineyards benefit from a microclimate regulated by the Danube River, with hot days and cool nights. With its soil composition of loess, gravel and primary rock, the Malat estate has plots of vineyard that express the different terroir and flavour profiles of the Gruner Veltliner and Riesling grapes. The Hohlgraben Palt Gruner Veltliner comes from 60 year old vines around the village of Palt on a soil composition of primary rock and loess. The farming is organic and the grapes are harvested by hand.
