The grapes thrive on slopes between 250 and 550 meters above sea level. The vineyards have calcareous, loamy to gravelly loam soils and are exposed to significant temperature fluctuations between day and night. Above-average temperatures in spring encouraged earlier bud break. The sustained warm temperatures in May led to rapid flowering. Thanks to targeted vineyard work and occasional rain, the vines remained stress-free despite periods of extreme heat in the summer. The harvest began almost two weeks earlier than usual. Because the weather cooperated perfectly, grapes of outstanding quality were harvested throughout the entire season. The red wines of the 2022 vintage are impressive, benefiting from a high degree of ripeness and developing complex fruit and a full flavor with robust aromas. The white wines exhibit pronounced, refined fruit with balanced acidity. Color: greenish to pale yellow hues. Aroma: Moriz revels in aromas of pear, citrus, and dried fruits, underpinned by buttery notes. Taste: Fresh and juicy on the palate, the Moriz possesses a pleasant fullness, accompanied by appealing minerality. The finish is slightly spicy and long-lasting.
