Winkler-Hermaden

Producer description of "Weingut Winkler-Hermaden"

The winery is located in the municipality of Kapfenstein in the wine-growing region of Vulkanland Steiermark (Austria) near the border with Slovenia. Since 1981, it has been run by the third generation of the family, Georg Winkler-Hermaden, who graduated as a master winemaker in 1986 at Silberberg. The castle on the Kapfensteiner Kogel, which was already mentioned in a document in 1065, is part of the family's property. One attraction is the 350-year-old "Long Cellar" with a length of 60 metres, which was renovated until 1997. Here the red wines mature in barriques and seminars, tastings and cultural events take place. The wines are vinified in the "Löwenkeller" (Lion Cellar), which is over 200 years old and has been hewn out of the mountain. The complementary "Drachenkeller" is an annex built in 1999.
