We strive to offer them the best environment for their aging process. Winemaking is the collaboration between nature and the continued engagement of the winemaker in order to cultivate the most authentic and unique wines possible. Our work in the wine cellar is centered on the goal of preserving what was achieved in the vineyards: bringing together the perfect balance of each wine and individual characteristics of each vineyard into the bottle. In a nutshell, it is our philosophy to intervene as little as possible yet as much as necessary to achieve our goals. The wooden barrels are essential to the maturation of our wines because they provide the optimal environment for them to age undisturbed. STEINERTAL A diverse vineyard that provides the optimal terrain for both Veltliner and Riesling grapes. Soil depth and microclimate vary within the vineyard. Our Riesling grows in the highest and driest parcels, and this is reflected in the finished wine. Pinot Noir Reserve 2015 This Blauburgunder was made with the ripest Pinot Noir grapes, especially from the top vineyards Dechant and Käferberg. The Dechant vineyard site is comprised of calcareous loess-clay soil terraces on the south-east slope. On the higher terraces is the clay with ancient rock and gravel deposits. Usually strict selection is necessary in wet vintages in order to obtain first-class grapes. The Käferberg vineyard site is located at the upper end of an eastern slope at about 300 meters above sea level – in the north of the town of Langenlois. Preserved calcareous, clayey marine deposits are found there. This soil is similar to that of the famous Château Petrus in Pomerol, and produces an extremely dense wine. The top layer is partly of sand and partly of primary rock. Tasting Note: Ruby red with lightly muted core and a garnet rim, intriguingly pure yet complex, still a little subdued, a juvenile bouquet of forest berries, cherries and currant, with a touch of lilac, vanilla, noble wood and spices (sandal, cinnamon, pepper), soft and dry entry, then instantly juicy and fresh, the fruit is persistent and well tamed, black cherries and mashed red berries, medium body while tightly structured, showing delicate tannins, spicy and slightly toasty with the multilayered fruit following through to a surprisingly long finish, great pleasure, great potential.

First a vision, then pure artisanal handiwork: together this makes the Black Edition our prestige line. It allows us the necessary freedom for experimentation, and challenges us every day to take our favourite varieties to the limits. Vinfication/Élevage After destemming and crushing, the juice and the berries (with about 5% stems remaining) are left together for a minimum of thirty days and punched down by hand. Malolactic fermentation and the subsequent maturing take place in 70% new and 30% used French oak. Wine A marvellously enchanting wine that is already exhibiting untold finesse in its youth. A delicate Burgundian style, silky and rich in finesse; seductive power paired with masive spice and a great deal of charm. Dazzling fruit and a charismatic finish that just never seems to end. Food Pairing Smoked duck breast, pigeon roasted till pink Winemaker: Familie Maier Vineyards: 23,0 ha Varieties : Grüner Veltliner, Riesling, Weißer Burgunder, Gelber Muskateller, Zweigelt Member of: Traditionsweingüter Österreich La Renaissance des Appellations Approximately 23 hectares of vineyards in the best sites of the Lower Austrian wine growing region of Kremstal are the home of the Geyerhof wines. The estate has been in the family since the 16th century and was first mentioned in a document of the 12th century. Since 1988, the family has worked according to the principles of organic viticulture. Beside the vineyards they also cultivate 27 hectares of crop lands, 40.000qm hedges, keep grazing cattles and bees. One can certainly say that Geyerhof is one of the organic pioneers in Austria. The focus is on cultivating Grüner Veltliner and Riesling varieties, whose nature is true to the four different types of soil which are present on the Geyerhof lands. Working in unity with the course of nature determines the working steps in vineyard and cellar. Thus, for the wine making they apply the principle of natural development of the wines with as little as possible. Biodynamic approaches, hand- harvested grapes and restrained cellaring techniques produce wines with a distinctive character, and which for decades now have reflected the special aspects of each individual vintage, the ground, and the grape variety. Not without good reason does the Geyerhof proudly boast membership in the Association of the” Traditional Austrian Wineries” and “La Renaissance des Appellations”, as it does widespread international recognition.

    Viennese cuisine is world-renowned for its pure delights – in every sense of the word. Whether traditional Schnitzel, Tafelspitz (boiled beef fillet) or Apple Strudel, many local delicacies are not as Viennese as one might think. Looking back into history, immigrants from parts of the old Habsburg empire – such as Hungary, Bohemia and Moravia – brought their recipes and ideas to the heart of the Danube region. Over decades, many different irresistible culinary influences came into being. Let yourself be inspired by our creative dishes and embark with us on a journey that will take your taste buds from yesteryear’s Habsburg monarchy to today’s modern age – whether typical dishes or seasonal specialties. With finesse and passion, the team of the Danube Tower cuisine places great importance on reinterpreting century-old tradition with contemporary culinary delights and regionality. This is what we define as the art of indulgence. Next to St. Stephen’s Cathedral, Schönbrunn Palace and the Giant Ferris Wheel, the Danube Tower ranks among Vienna’s most well-known and most spectacular landmarks. The 252-metre high tower was opened concurrently with the International Garden Show in 1964. It is Austria’s tallest building structure and a tangible reminiscence of the optimism and pioneering spirit of the 1960s. D. Hofbauer A. Widgruber P.

He has been in charge of the winery since 2011, following the footsteps of his father, grandfather and great grandfather. Mathias gained his experience by working with Anton Bauer in the Wagram and through internships at Roman Pfaffl and Julius Klein. Fallstaff Magazine awarded his Grüner Veltliner DAC Classic 2016 the prestigious Grüner Veltliner Grand Prix 2017 prize. The vineyard is small, with only 42 acres and a total production of 80,000 bottles. The vast Weinviertel stretches from the Danube valley in the south to the Czech border in the north, and from the Manhartsberg in the west to the border of Slovakia in the east. The Weinviertel is mostly known for Grüner Veltliner and the first DAC in Austria. If the label reads Weinviertel DAC it is always 100% Grüner Veltliner. A highlight of the western part of Weinviertel is the area around the historic wine- trading town of Retz, with its labyrinth of underground wine cellars.

  • Wine Vintage 2016 in Weinviertel – Wild Start, Perfect End
    Wine vintage 2016 in Weinviertel – wild start, perfect end Mother Nature proved to be a powerful goddess in 2016 and she didn’t make things easy for Weinviertel vintners, especially in the spring. Frost damage at the end of April was significant, yet varied greatly between locations. In contrast, the wine year came to a conciliatory end with outstanding harvest weather conditions throughout the Weinviertel. The 2016 growing season began successfully. Winter precipitation provided soils with sufficient moisture and left them perfectly prepared for budbreak, which occurred quite normally. Then frost hit at the end of April. For three consecutive days, temperatures dropped to -6 °C (21 °F). Wind came and dispersed the frost so that it didn’t remain collected in deep areas and at least vines on slopes were spared. To mitigate frost damage, straw bales and paraffin were burned in many vineyards to envelope vines in a protective cloud of smoke. Despite these measures, it was not always possible to prevent damage to the abundant young shoots present at this time. A fruit loss of up to 30 percent or even more in affected vineyards was unavoidable. Subsequent rains continued into the summer, but vine flowering, the decisive phase for fruit set, occurred in pleasant weather conditions. A damp spring naturally has its advantages, because areas that have little precipitation benefit from good water availability. One example of this is the area surrounding Ziersdorf, a place within the Weinviertel that is normally quite dry. The disadvantage is that the probability of fungal disease, in particular peronospora (downy mildew), increases rapidly.
