The Leo Alzinger winery is located in the municipality of Unterloiben in the Lower Austrian wine-growing region of Wachau. It is run by Leo Alzinger Sr (born 1946) and Leo Alzinger Jr (born 1979). Leo Jr., trained at the HBLA Klosterneuburg, with practical experience in Austrian wineries, Germany and New Zealand, integrates his own ideas and continues what his father started with the same consistency - "All or nothing". The vineyards cover nine hectares of vines in the top Wachau vineyards of Burgstall, Frauenweingarten, Höhereck, Hollerin, Liebenberg, Loibenberg, Mühlpoint and Steinertal.
They are 100% planted with white wine varieties, namely Grüner Veltliner (55%), Riesling (40%) and Chardonnay (5%). The best wines are vinified according to vineyard site, which is documented by the winery's guiding principle: "We give each vineyard its own personality". The premium wines include Riesling Smaragd Dürnsteiner Höhereck, Grüner Veltliner Smaragd Reserve (only bottled in magnums ), Grüner Veltliner Smaragd Mühlpoint and Grüner Veltliner Smaragd Loibner Steinertal. The winery is a member of the Vinea Wachau Nobilis Districtus winegrowers' association.
