The winery is located in the municipality of Göttlesbrunn in the Carnuntum wine-growing region of Lower Austria. It was founded in 1950 by Johann and Katharina Markowitsch under the name "Marko's Weine" as a commercial enterprise with its own vineyards. From 1975 it was managed by Hans Markowitsch and his wife Monika. Since 1998 it has been run by Lukas Markowitsch, the third generation of the family, assisted by his brother Johann. Lukas Markowitsch previously gained experience on study trips through France, Italy, California, Australia and New Zealand. The vineyards cover 14 hectares in the Altenberg, Eisenbacher, Hagelsberg, Haidacker, Kräften, Rosenberg, Schüttenberg, Stuhlwerker and Zwiering vineyards.
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.
