Bauer Norbert

Producer description of "Weingut Norbert Bauer"

The winery is located in the municipality of Jetzelsdorf in the Pulka Valley in the west of the Lower Austrian wine-growing region of Weinviertel, close to the border with the Czech Republic. The traditional family has been cultivating wine here since 1721. A guesthouse with a few rooms is attached. The farm has been run by Norbert and Gisela Bauer, the 13th generation, since 1992. Incidentally, the Bauer family's winegrowers' house was the filming location for the successful Austrian TV crime series "Polt", which also has its own wine (Blauer Portugieser). The vineyards cover 58 hectares of vineyards with 250,000 vines in basin and steep slopes on loess and primary rock soils. These are distributed among the vineyards Altenberg, Bergsatz, Diermannsee, Gerichtsberg, Fuchsenbereg, Haidberg, Hasenecken, Kellerberg, Parapluiberg, Schatzberg and Übeleisen. They are partly planted with vines over forty years old, ungrafted. The winery specialises in red wines; the Schatzberg is considered the Weinviertel red wine island. The red wine varieties Zweigelt, St. Laurent, Blauer Portugieser, Blaufränkisch, Blauburger, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Merlot are cultivated to 60% and the white wine varieties Grüner Veltliner, Welschriesling, Riesling, Weißburgunder (Pinot Blanc) and Chardonnay to 40%.
