Bishop Altmann of Passau donated the village of "Talarin samt Weingärten" to Göttweig Abbey in 1083. Today, Thallern in Krems-Süd is the home of the Tanzer family. The winery comprises eleven hectares of vineyards located in the Krems vineyards Herrentrost, Frauengrund, Steinhagen and Schwerer Zapfen. The Kremstal mainly cultivates Grüner Veltliner and Riesling, but the estate's range also includes Gelber Muskateller, Pinot Blanc Weissenburger and Chardonnay as well as award-winning red wines.
The family's flagship is the "TOP-Heurige", which was refurbished in spring. The food on offer is not limited to the traditional Hauerjause, you can also look forward to seasonal specialties. As a digestif, there are brandies made from apricots, Williams-Christ pears and apples, i.e. from fruit that is also produced on the premises.
Franz Tanzer's successes in recent years prove him right: awarded several times in the "SALON Österreich Wein", eleven times "Kremser Weinstadtsieger", winner of the "profil-DAC-Weintest" - and one of the most important awards was the crowning of "Ö1-Wein-Sieger". The Tanzers are also committed to the concept of ecology. Since 2016, they have not used insecticides as defined by the "AMA". A visit to the Tanzer winery is worthwhile, you will receive a warm welcome.
