Unterloiben. Sandy, stony soil over granitic gneiss. 414 m from the Danube, terraced and steep at up to 394 m. Not as open as the Alzinger version, but more marked freshness and persistence. Leaner but longer. Still on the light side for Smaragd though it builds to greater power as it warms in the glass. (JH)
