The Urbanushof is located in the center of the historic village of Oberloiben. Nestled among its neighbors’ farms, its traditional architecture blends seamlessly into the picturesque landscape of its surroundings. A place, a home where you can feel at ease. And the cornerstone of a long tradition of winemaking. Its origins can be traced back to the year 1696.
The Stierschneider family has been managing the Urbanushof ever since; for centuries as winegrowers, and since the mid-20th century, the wines have been bottled. Regardless of the variety, the goal is to bring out the fruit, freshness, and character of each vintage to their fullest expression. In the cellar, the family limits itself to “controlled inaction”—the unobtrusive guidance of a gentle aging process. Paul Stierschneider’s wine is a natural product that embodies its region of origin and captures its unique characteristics.
The wine tavern at the Urbanushof opens twice a year. Guests can then indulge in the house wines in a cozy atmosphere while enjoying homemade bread and hearty snacks. Vegetarian and vegan dishes are also on the menu. Wine is served not only in the indoor dining area, but also in the garden, the courtyard, and a tasting room above the wine cellar. The view of the Dürnstein ruins rounds out the experience.
