The vine training for vines was developed in Austria in the 1930s by winery owner and viticulture pioneer Laurenz (Lenz) Moser III (1905-1978) on his own farm in Rohrendorf im Kremstal(Lower Austria). After travelling through European wine-growing regions, he took over the family winery in 1929. Today it no longer belongs to the Lenz Moser family, but operates under the name Lenz Moser AG. From the end of the 1920s, Moser undertook experiments with a wide-row system supported by wire frames, which he called high culture and was named after him as "Moser culture" and subsequently became known worldwide.
I have great respect for the scope and quality of the wein.plus encyclopaedia. It is a unique place to go for crisp, sound information on terms from the world of wine.
