The Kamptal was like an island of rain in a very dry 2022. After an exceptionally dry winter, the long-anticipated rain finally came in mid-April. In fact, by the time the harvest began, we already had as much rain in six months as there is normally during an entire year. However, the distribution was not always favourable. There were losses due to peronospora, especially with Grüner Veltliner. But as is often the case in such difficult years, the variety fortunately repaid with very good grape quality, thanks to the “natural” thinning out due to powdery mildew. August was dry, which brought excellent ripeness, though rain in September imposed yet another challenge at the beginning of the harvest.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLangenlois Ried Loiserberg, Kamptal DAC.
