Erich and Claudia Giefing live in a magnificent "Weinbürgerhaus" in the centre of Rust. The extremely dynamic winery has quickly become one of Austria's top red wine producers in recent years thanks to its top quality. Particularly storable and expressive reserve wines underline the quality of the range. With its wines from vines up to 60 years old, the winery has already won a number of national and international awards. The vineyards have excellent, particularly loose soils, most of which are underlain by calcareous sandstone and Rust gravel. The grapes are smaller, the skins thicker, and the extract of colour and taste is therefore higher. The top line is only produced in particularly good years. No cheap wines are produced here, instead a unique style full of character is created, far removed from the mainstream. The Giefings offer an idea, an idea and the taste of their region.
