The winery is located in the municipality of Gösing am Wagram in the Lower Austrian wine-growing region of Wagram. It is managed by Leopold Blauensteiner. The vineyards cover eight hectares of vineyards in the vineyards Essenthal, Fumberg, Gmirk and Wilbling on mostly dominant loess soils. The white wine varieties Grüner Veltliner (the leading variety with about 50% of the total area), Roter Veltliner, Sauvignon Blanc, Gelber Muskateller, Chardonnay and Riesling account for 85% of the vineyards, and the red wine varieties Zweigelt, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Blauburger for 15%. The environmentally friendly cultivation follows the rules of KIP (Controlled Integrated Production). A strict yield reduction is achieved through uncompromising thinning out.
In the past, you needed a wealth of encyclopaedias and specialist literature to keep up to date in your vinophile professional life. Today, Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one of my best helpers and can rightly be called the "bible of wine knowledge".
