Weingut Nigl is located on the outskirts of Senftenberg, near the foothills of the Burgberg. Today, the winery has 30 hectares of vineyards spread over the best sites of the Kremstal. The most important are Pellingen, planted with Riesling and Grüner Veltliner, and Hochäcker, planted with Riesling. The vineyards are located near Senftenberg, Rehberg, and the Kremser Rieden.
The best wines in the Nigl range are called "Privat". The two "Privat" selections come from old vineyards in the Pellingen area of Senftenberg. The yields of the 40-year-old vines are very low on the barren primary rock soils, but the quality is all the higher: year after year, two great wines are produced here, with great concentration and minerality. Stuart Pigott says of Martin Nigl's wines: "From the simplest wine to these ultimate pinnacles, Nigl's whites are crystal clear and extremely precise in aroma and flavour. Here, almost indecent charm and great elegance are combined; simply brilliant! We can only agree with this statement.
The Nigl family also runs a restaurant and a small hotel in Senftenberg, making for a comfortable stay in the Kremstal.
