With its varied plateaus and slopes, the Wagram offers the ideal conditions for Gerhard Ehn to produce high-quality wines in conscious interaction with nature. In 2003, the winemaker took over the family business and modernized it step by step, including the construction of a new cellar. The labels were also changed to a simple but expressive line. By making use of the existing slope, the winery manages to get from the grape to the finished wine in the bottle with just three pumping operations in some cases. Depending on the variety and vintage, the wines are matured in steel tanks, large wooden barrels or sometimes in barriques.
The winemaker's main focus is on Grüner Veltliner. With four different vinification methods, he has succeeded in producing a range of high-quality wines, from the light, sparkling summer wine "Swing" to the full-bodied top Veltliner from the Mordthal vineyard, with something for every taste. The varieties Roter Veltliner, Pinot Blanc, Chardonnay, Riesling and Frühroter Veltliner round off the range of white wines. The red wine Zweigelt is matured both classically and in barriques. The aim of the up-and-coming winery is to use modern cellar technology and a great awareness of nature to produce outstanding wines that are a pleasure to drink.
