"If you walk a mile in my shoes, you'll end up in a vineyard"




Wine needs time



Time is scarce nowadays. In winemaking we try to do it differently.
A lot of time is dedicated to our vines, grapes, and wine bottles until we release them to the market.
Spending time in the vineyard means to observe every vine during all seasons to decide which individual treatment they will receive. So that we can create a sense of feeling for each location. As a result, the vines reward us with healthy and tasteful grapes. With the right soil management and the preservation of biodiversity and a small-structured agriculture the ideal conditions for our vines are created.



Red wine is our passion



The area around the village Haugsdorf is called the Red Wine-Island of the Weinviertel region.
This designation is due to the soils, geology, and climatic prerequisites, which can be found here.
Loam and Sand play the leading role, which offer the best conditions for red wine production. Blauer Portgieser and Zweigelt were the forerunners. In recent years the variety got extended by Cabernets, Merlot and Pinot Noir.
Our red wine production has been established on a 120-year-old tradition of red wine making in Haugsdorf, enriched by international knowledge and modern technologies.



Where does this passion come from?



Red wines are different - they are complex, multi-layered, and full of aging potential. We do not judge a wine only at present, but also assess its future potential.
The interaction of time, ripeness, and tannins fascinates us again and again. We aim to produce wines, which at first sip will not show all their facets, but will give delight after some years.
