The House of Habsburg was one of the most influential and respected royal houses in Europe. The throne of the Holy Roman Empire was continuously occupied by the Habsburgs from 1438 until its dissolution in 1806. Austria is the land of music, art, culture, history and fine cuisine. It is the beating heart of Europe, which is proud of its imperial history and scenic splendor.

Maximilian Habsburg learned the art of viticulture during his training at Klessheim Castle in Salzburg. He immersed himself in the mysteries of oenology. This gave rise to the desire to provide your own table with a wine of exquisite quality from our own production: “A wine that tastes great and certainly does not cause a headache.”

In order to guarantee the special quality of our wines, the grapes are carefully selected. Around two thirds are thinned out so that only the best grapes grow to full maturity. This remaining third of grapes of perfect quality is carefully picked by hand and vinified with a lot of experience and the most demanding cellar technology.

Wagram is an elongated mountain range up to 40 meters high in Lower Austria. It accompanies the Danube on both sides and on its north side represents a steep, widely visible terrain made of glacier loess. Located in the Wagram wine region, the vineyards are carefully monitored and looked after all year round.

Austria’s special geographical location is the largest and most important factor for the exceptional quality of our wines. Although Austria is on the same latitude as Burgundy, it is much more centrally located within Europe. It is therefore in the transition zone between the mild and humid Atlantic and the continental Pannonian climate with much greater temperature variation.
