Authenticity is our credo.
Our philosophy is to make the best of the outstanding potential that nature has entrusted upon us. This results in a huge responsibility towards the family, nature, history and ultimately the wine itself. Our greatest gifts are our vineyards, the vines and the knowledge gained from long-standing tradition, enhanced with intuition and curiosity. The subtle nuances of the individual vineyards must therefore be perceptible, identifiable and, above all, palatable in their uniqueness.

You have to have an idea of wine. I love to work in the vineyard - the creative act of winemaking begins in spring.
We want to make wines that are a true reflection of the year, the soil and the specific microclimate of the Wachau. Every wine should be unique and distinctive.

We make seamless wines, that's our hallmark.
