Our winery has the Austrian Certificate in Sustainability from the 2020 vintage
The Sustainable Austria logo is effectively a seal of quality to ensure the sustainable production of wine, adhering to economic, ecological and social responsibility. These criteria are scrutinised from the harvest, grape processing, to maturation and bottling, with the entire production process being examined for its contribution towards improved sustainability.

Lucas Pichler never wanted to walk into a ready-made nest. Someone who stands on the shoulders of a legend called “F.X.” has no choice in the matter. He must live up to the high reputation and still listen to his inner voice.

The principal advantages of the Wachau DAC status include increased transparency, clarity, and an absolute commitment to wines of origin. The new Wachau DAC comes into effect from the 2020 vintage.

The F.X. Pichler winery leaves the Vinea Wachau. It was a decision that both generations made together.
