The history of the Tegernseerhof goes back over 1,000 years, to the time when Emperor Heinrich II donated "two hectares of land" in the Wachau to the Benedictine monastery of Tegernsee. In 1176 the Tegernseerhof was built on it, named after its owner.
Today, many centuries later, the Tegernseerhof is owned by the sixth generation of the Mittelbach family. Its name has been preserved, as has the age-old knowledge of winemaking which has been passed down from generation to generation.
The vineyards of the Tegernseerhof extend over the best sites of the Wachau. They are characterised by steep terraces of solid primary rock which are ideally situated to be caressed by the winds and heated by the sun. The result - an unbelievable density and diversity of aromas are revealed in the Smaragd wines of the winery. Whether Grüner Veltliner or Riesling, each wine has its own personality, each its own character.
