The traditional winery is located in the municipality of Leutschach in the Austrian wine-growing region of Southern Styria. The first documentary records date back to 1727. Today the estate is run by Maria and Sepp Muster. The vineyards comprise ten hectares of vines in the Graf and Sgaminegg areas. They are planted with the white wine varieties Sauvignon Blanc, Welschriesling, Morillon and Gelber Muskateller(Muscatel), and with the red wine varieties Blauer Wildbacher, Zweigelt and Blaufränkisch stocked. The most valuable vineyards are made of pure opok rock (tegel like sediment) and therefore show sparse growth with very low yields. The natural, environmentally friendly cultivation is done with biodynamic methods according to the rules of DEMETER. This includes the dynamisation and application of teas and preparations from plant, mineral and animal substances, taking into account certain planetary constellations, as well as the consistent renunciation of fertilisers, herbicides and synthetic pesticides.
