The winery is located in the municipality of Gols (Neubaugasse 29) in the Burgenland wine-growing region of Neusiedlersee (Austria). In 1995, the two brothers Horst and Georg Schmelzer, both trained as winemakers and cellar masters, took over their parents' business. The company motto is: "Top wines from heart to heart!"
The vineyards cover 12 hectares of vines in the Altenberg, Goldberg, Satz, Ungerberg, Wiesäcker and Zwergäcker vineyards. Two thirds of the vineyards are planted with the white wine varieties Welschriesling, Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, Grüner Veltliner, Pinot Gris, Neuburger, Gewürztraminer, Riesling and Muskat-Ottonel, and one third with the red wine varieties Zweigelt, Blaufränkisch, St. Laurent and Cabernet Sauvignon. The yield is limited by short pruning and thinning out, and careful foliage care produces fully ripe, healthy grapes.

The Wine lexicon helps me to keep up to date and refresh my knowledge. Thank you for this Lexicon that will never end in terms of topicality! That's what makes it so exciting to come back often.
