The vineyards cover 12 hectares of vines in the Bandkräftn, Geyer, Greiner, Kraxner, Plachen, Ruster, Satz, Umriss and Vogelsang vineyards. Half of the vineyards are planted with the red wine varieties Blaufränkisch, Zweigelt, Pinot Noir, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, and half with the white wine varieties Welschriesling, Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, Grüner Veltliner, Neuburger, Muskat-Ottonel and Gewürztraminer. The vineyards are cultivated close to nature in accordance with the KIP (Controlled Integrated Production) guidelines. This includes cover crop between the rows of vines, no artificial fertilisers and the use of pesticides that are gentle on beneficial insects. The yield is limited to a maximum of 4,000 kg/ha of grapes.
