Located in Gumpoldskirchen, Weingut Hannes Hofer is perhaps among one of the last traditional wineries and wine taverns, a family business that also runs a small guest house.
The main focus concentrates on the typical regional autochthonous varieties Rotgipfler and Zierfandler. Regionality, authenticity and typicity are important to the family. The terroir is particularly emphasised in the wines from the Stocknarrn and Kreuzweingarten vineyards. The attractive ageing potential of the wines from the Thermen region is very exciting, as well as for the Rotgipfler and Zierfandler wines. The Hofers are particularly interested in developing astute varietal characteristics in their wines. Nevertheless, they offer a wide range of varieties, blends and vinifications.
Using natural growing methods for the nine hectares of vineyards in and around Gumpoldskirchen is a top priority for the Hofers. This has been a guiding principle for their work mantra for many years. In order for this to be officially recognised, they are in the process of getting organic certification - an important step in the right direction for the family.
