Craftsmanship, terroir and precision form the foundation of Domäne Wachau under the management of Roman Horvath MW and Heinz Frischengruber. In close cooperation with their Wachau winegrowers, respect for nature and the soil dominates the strenuous work on the steep slopes. With over 150 hectares of organic vineyards, Domäne Wachau is the most important winery in Austria with organically cultivated vineyards. With a small structure and largely by hand, the winegrowers work an average of less than two hectares - with full focus on each individual vine. The wines from large vineyards such as Achleiten, Brandstatt and Kellerberg reflect their unique origins and stand for an unmistakable purist style with depth and drinkability. A cooperative rethought.
In the modernly designed vinotheque you will find the entire range of our wines as well as interesting facts about viticulture, culture and tradition of the region. From Steinfedern and Federspiele to grandiose Smaragd wines, all our top wines can be tasted here and purchased at farm-gate prices. There are also many regional specialties such as Wachau apricot jam, Riesling vinegar, apricot mustard, hand-scooped Veltliner brandy chocolate, glasses, selected Wachau books, fine gift sets and much more...
