Karl Brindlmayer is the sixth generation of his family to be responsible for the family winery and makes his enthusiasm accessible to a wide audience. The estate was first mentioned in a document in 1557 and the family has lived there since 1833. The new website byKarl.at simply stands for Brindlmayer Karl Austria. It embodies not only the multi-faceted lineage of the estate, but also cosmopolitanism and sustainability as a way of life. At the estate, vinification in the traditional wine cellar is combined with a modern ambience, which also conveys an attitude to life with a view through cultural events. The terraced vineyards are planted on calcareous soils, sometimes characterized by deep loess and conglomerate rock, while on the eastern side of the Traisen river, a fresh, cool wine character is transported by loamy-sandy soils.
The winemaker is driven by the declared goal of creating distinctive yet accessible wines with a character of origin year after year, whose charm and deeply rooted identity speak for themselves. Last but not least, he wants to kiss the traditional wine village of Traismauer awake from its slumber. The new local wine line offers unmistakable wine enjoyment with a classic, precise Traisental style, which radiates not least due to the special proximity to the Danube. The winegrower has long proven impressively that excellence can also be achieved off the beaten track. The traditional "Brigos" brand is intended to embody power in accordance with the ancient Celtic meaning of the word, but without being cheeky. Instead, the company's flagship unfolds its presence with elegant subtlety. The historical significance of the promising single vineyard sites "Sonnleithen" (Cup winner 2021 and 2025) to the left of the Traisen and "Brunnberg" to the right is also a key feature. Karl Brindlmayer's maxim is to be a local ambassador for independent wines with a clearly tangible identity and to enjoy wine.
