Silt refers to a type of soil particle that is specifically finer than sand but coarser than clay and Lieu Dit here refers to the ‘said-location’ within the winemarker’s vineyard, where the soil is almost 100% pure silt. Weingut Rebenhof is located along the southern Styrian wine route in Austria and winemaker Harti emphasises natural practices such as biodynamic farming, no additions (e.g. enzymes, cultured yeasts), low yields, long aging in both steel and Austrian oak, and wines that often lean into skin contact and field blends rather than strict varietal conventions. His philosophy is one of connectedness to the land and experimentation, pushing the boundaries of what Styrian wine can express while maintaining rigorous biodynamic methods and sustainable practices.
