Dinstlgut

Historical winery or wine cooperative in the municipality of Loiben in the wine-growing region Wachau (Lower Austria) on the left Danube. Over its more than 1000 years of development, it made a significant contribution to Austrian wine history. It is among the oldest wineries in Austria. Its origins date back to the year 860 when King Louis the German (804-876) gifted the estate "Liupna" (Oberloiben) to the Salzburg Church. The winery became the center of colonization and cultivation in this area.

Dinstlgut - Building

Construction of a farmstead

In the year 1002, King Henry II (973-1024) granted the Tegernsee Monastery "two hide in the east in the place Liupna", which led to the establishment of new vineyards and the construction of a large farmstead (later Dinstlgut and parish house), cellar facilities, and a pressing. The estate was expanded until the 18th century with the vineyards Supperin, Oberhauser, and Schütt. The properties in Ober- and Unterloiben remained in the possession of the Church until 1802, then it became a k. k. state winery managed from the Nikolaihof in Mautern and later came into noble ownership.
