Dorli Muhr

Producer description of "Weingut Dorli Muhr"

The winery is located on the Spitzerberg, in the municipality of Prellenkirchen in the Carnuntum wine-growing region (Lower Austria). In its original form, the business was founded jointly by Dorli Muhr and Dirk Niepoort. In 2017, Dorli Muhr acquired the 50% share of her former partner. Since then, the winery has operated under the name "Dorli Muhr". As oenologist, Lukas Brandstätter is responsible for the technical aspects of the cellar.

The vineyards cover 11 hectares of vines on the Spitzerberg. The extremely wind-exposed vineyards on pure limestone are characterised by particularly dry conditions and low yields. The centrepiece is a small revitalised parcel of 0.17 hectares on the Ried Roterd on the middle slope of the Spitzerberg, which Katharina Muhr, the owner's grandmother, received as a wedding present in 1918. The plot was replanted in the 1990s and has been gradually expanded ever since. Great importance was attached to old vines.

The glossary is a monumental achievement and one of the most important contributions to wine knowledge. Of all the encyclopaedias I use on the subject of wine, it is by far the most important. That was the case ten years ago and it hasn't changed since.
