The winery is located in the municipality of Straß im Straßertale in the Lower Austrian wine-growing region of Kamptal. After completing his education at the HBLA and BA for Viticulture and Fruit Growing in Klosterneuburg, practical experience at renowned wineries in Friuli, Tuscany and Austria (Knoll, Topf and Steininger), as well as his studies in International Wine Management, Martin Arndorfer took over his parents' business. The vineyards cover ten hectares in the Brunngasse, Gaisberg, Hasel and Wechselberg vineyards, which are planted with the Grüner Veltliner, Riesling, Chardonnay, Neuburger and Zweigelt varieties. The declared aim is to emphasise the existing potential of the wines from the Kamptal and Strass in terms of fruit and finesse, together with ageing in small oak barrels. This is reflected in the top line "The Passion". These are the four wines Grüner Veltliner, Riesling, Zweigelt and "ChNb" (cuvée of Chardonnay and Neuburger), which are matured in barriques for up to 16 months and are produced in small quantities and offered by subscription. Other premium wines are Riesling Strasser Vineyards and Grüner Veltliner Strasser Vineyards.
I have great respect for the scope and quality of the wein.plus encyclopaedia. It is a unique place to go for crisp, sound information on terms from the world of wine.
