The Auer family winery is a traditional business that, through quality, sustainability and innovation, has for years been producing wines with character and a personal signature, which reflect all the passion of the family for nature and viticulture. "Of, for and with nature" - this is the Auers' motto and this is why the winery manages its 23 hectares of vineyards according to organic principles, because sustainability and the preservation of heritage for future generations are very important to the family business. The vineyard area has 45% dedicated to the Burgundy varieties Pinot Noir and St. Laurent, the lead varieties of the organic farm.
Both slopes and wide plains characterise the terroir and give them their distinctive character. In the plains, one finds limestone gravel soils that are particularly permeable; moisture after heavy rains is quickly drained away. When exposed to sunlight, the soils warm up considerably. St. Laurent and Pinot Noir do particularly well on the poor, stony soils. On the slopes, heavy soils are found, such as loamy clay, sandy loam and brown earth with a high percentage of shell limestone.
This provides the perfect foundation for the autochthonous Rotgipfler and Zierfandler varieties, as well as for Chardonnay varieties.
The winery is a member of the association "Die Burgundermacher" and since 2022 also one of the nine "Traditionsweingüter Österreich" in the Thermenregion.
The philosophy of the Auer family is also reflected in the Heurigen; here you can experience a high class culture, a stylish ambience in all rooms, great hospitality through familial care and seasonal and regional delicacies; a treat for the palate with every visit.
