The grandfather, the father and now the son: the Mayer family is the third generation to dedicate themselves to viticulture in the Spitzer Graben, one of the most beautiful corners of the Wachau. As passionate and experienced winegrowers, they know that it's all about the right mix: preserving traditions, embracing progress and giving nature its space. This is how they understand winemaking. True to the motto "With nature and not against it", they have decided to switch to organic farming.
The Spitzer Graben, between Spitz and Mühldorf, is home to the highest and steepest wine terraces in the Wachau. Grüner Veltliner, Pinot Blanc Weissburgunder, Riesling, Muscat and Neuburger grow here in the Mühlgraben, Setzberg, Biern and Schön vineyards. The greatest pleasure is to present the specific characteristics of each grape variety in the best possible way during vinification.
There is no "we've always done it this way" at the winery. They strive to develop further, especially in the wine cellar, and mix the advantages of traditional viticulture with modern winemaking methods. The wines are given plenty of time to mature and develop. And so the harmonious, natural Mayer wines impress with their unique characteristics. The work at the winery and at the wine bar is shared within the family, as is the joy of it. This can be tasted and experienced.
