The winery is located in the municipality of Neusetz (Hof bei Straden) in the Austrian wine-growing region of Vulkanland Steiermark. In addition to viticulture, there is also Mangalitza (woolly pig) pig breeding, the products obtained from this are sold ex farm. The restaurant "Krispels Genusstheater" is attached. The aim of the family farm is to reflect pure and regional taste and the highest possible quality of life in their products, in close connection with nature. The fundemant was created by Toni Krispel, taken over by son Stefan and expanded.
The vineyards cover 34 hectares of vines in the Hochstrandl, Kaargebirge, Königsberg, Neusertzberg, Pregucken, Rosenberg, Seindling and Straden vineyards. In addition, grapes are also purchased from contract winegrowers. They are stocked with 85% of the white wine varieties Welschriesling, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Sauvignon Blanc, Morillon, Riesling, Gelber Muskateller, Traminer, Sämling 88 (Scheurebe) and Müller-Thurgau, as well as the red wine varieties Pinot Noir and Blauer Zweigelt. Organic viticulture certified by the organic inspection body Lacon is practised. Lacon was also responsible for the site classification; a quality standard under private law for the Eruption winegrowers.
As honorary chairman of the Domäne Wachau, it is the easiest and quickest way for me to access the wein.plus encyclopaedia when I have questions. The certainty of receiving well-founded and up-to-date information here makes it an indispensable guide.
