Krug Gustav

Producer description of "Weingut Gustav Krug"

The winery is located in the municipality of Gumpoldskirchen in the wine-growing region of Thermenregion (Lower Austria). The Krug family has been growing wine here since 1746, which is documented in the land register introduced under Maria Theresa (1717-1780). The "Altes Zechhaus" wine tavern opened its doors for the first time in 1970. In 1998, the wine cellar was relocated and a modern, functional winery was built in the middle of the vineyards.

The vineyards cover 35 hectares of vines in the Asslatz, Doctnerin, Eichkogel, Hausberg, Katzbühel, Kreuzweingarten, Rasslerin and Sonnberg vineyards. They are 60% planted with the white wine varieties Welschriesling, Chardonnay, Rotgipfler, Zierfandler, Grüner Veltliner, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Gris, and 40% with the red wine varieties Merlot, Zweigelt, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon. The vineyards are cultivated close to nature.

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.
