The winery is located in the municipality of Gols (Untere Hauptstraße 49) in the Burgenland wine-growing region of Neusiedlersee (Austria). The foundation stone was laid centuries ago by the ancestors of the traditional winegrowing family. The winery has been run by Anita and Hans "John" Nittnaus since 1985. The vineyards cover a total of 36 hectares, of which 18 hectares are in Gols and the surrounding area ( Altenberg, Heideboden, Kurzberg and Ungerberg vineyards) and 18 hectares are in the Leithaberg wine-growing region, mostly in the municipality of Jois. They are 90% planted with the red wine varieties Blaufränkisch (lead variety), Zweigelt, St. Laurent and Merlot, and 10% with the white wine varieties Pinot Blanc, Chardonnay, Grüner Veltliner and Furmint.
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.
