The Roman and Adelheid Pfaffl winery is located in the municipality of Stetten near Korneuburg on the north-western city border of Wien in the wine-growing region of Weinviertel in Lower Austria. The farm, which has been run for generations, was taken over by the current winemaker Roman Pfaffl (*1951) from his parents in 1978. At that time, however, viticulture played only a minor role with less than one hectare of vineyards. But then began the rapid rise to what is today often called "Mr. Veltliner". In 2003, newly built tasting rooms, a vinotheque, a winter garden and a barrique warehouse were put into operation. In 2019, there was a significant expansion and investment in state-of-the-art cellar technology.
In the past, you needed a wealth of encyclopaedias and specialist literature to keep up to date in your vinophile professional life. Today, Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one of my best helpers and can rightly be called the "bible of wine knowledge".
