Freigut Thallern is one of the oldest and most traditional wineries in Austria. Since 1141, when the estate was donated to the Cistercian order, this unique vineyard has been continuously cultivated. To this day, quality wine of the highest standard is produced on 30 hectares of the best vineyards in the Thermenregion. Top vineyards such as Die Wiege, Ronald and Student form the basis of the region's finest wines. The best soils are characterized by shell limestone, and the sunny and dry climate rounds off the excellent conditions. The perfect geographical conditions guarantee consistently high-quality wines with a unique character. The vineyards of the Thallern estate are predominantly planted with Burgundy vines and regional specialties. With the grape varieties Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and Neuburger, the winery cultivates the Burgundian tradition in white wine, and with Rotgipfler, Zierfandler and Riesling, the typical regional white wine grape varieties are pressed. Pinot Noir and St. Laurent characterize the winery's red wine line. It is managed by three successful winegrowers and an internationally experienced wine expert. Karl Alphart is one of the most accomplished white wine winemakers in the region, Leo Aumann is one of the best and most successful red wine producers in Austria, Erich Polz is considered one of the most competent winemakers in Austria, and Willibald Balanjuk is a nationally and internationally successful wine marketer. This quartet guarantees high quality.
