The wines called 'vom Opok' come from the 'lower' area, which is fatter, clayier, but rich in limestone and Opok (marl). 100% Sauvignon Blanc for which the grapes are hand-harvested, destemmed and then gently pressed. The must ferments spontaneously, the wine ages in old 300–3000 liter barrels for 18 months, without the addition of sulfur.

Weingut Werlitsch
In 2004, Ewald Tscheppe and his brother Andreas took over their father’s vineyards in Leutschach, near the Slovenian border. The landscape here is strikingly diverse and almost untouched, nature feels vivid and immediate. Vines have been cultivated since Roman times on the region’s chalky marl (Kalkmergel) and clay-rich alluvial Opok soils. The hallmark varieties are Morillon, essentially the local expression of Chardonnay and some of the oldest Sauvignon Blanc plantings in the world outside France.
