In our winery situated in Andau traditional working methods meet modern cellar techniques.
Our cellar team led by Wolfgang Peck and Christopher Eisinger make sure, that every work-step beginning from the grape receiving during harvest and the bottling process are performed as carefully as possible to ensure the best possible wine quality and bring it into the bottle.
We continuously invest in traditional equipment such as oak barrels but are also open to new innovations to guarantee the best quality. That is why our wines are vinified in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks and then carefully matured partly in oak barrels of different sizes and ages.
All our red wines are certified vegan and our winery is awarded the International Food Standard (IFS). That way we can guaranty a complete traceability from the vine plant to the bottle.
With the construction of our new ZANTHO winery facility 2020/21 we are setting another strong example in sustainability – the whole building will be fed by the powerful sun over Andau – energy self-sufficient and ecologically highly energy-efficient.
Responsibility for
climate, environment and
people
Certified sustainable
Our winery is certified „Sustainable Austria“. We want to act sustainable and set new standards in Andau. It is important to take responsibility together – for the climate, the environment and also for us – human beings. That is why not only ethical values play an important role but also work in our vineyards. With individual measures we encourage biodiversity in nature and focus on a sparing use of our resources. We ensure fair working conditions and our economic decisions are always made on a sustainable basis. By using the seal, we fulfill criteria that our wines are produced economically, ecologically and according to social standards and are strictly tested.
Classic and reserve
To guarantee the fruit and freshness of our classic white and red wines, they are matured in our modern temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. That way we can optimally preserve the varietal character of our wines and perfectly bring the classic taste profile of our region into the bottle.
Our wines of the reserve line are produced from the best grape selections only in selected vintages and matured mostly in new and used oak barrels. Due to the slow oxygen exchange during maturation in the wooden barrel and the integration of the tannins, the wine gets backbone to allow for longer bottle ageing. We have more than 300 small and larger oak barrels and enough time and patience that the wine needs to develop its individual character.
