With a playful approach, Markus Iro knows how to bring out the typical character of each grape variety and make pure and unmistakable wines. It was always clear to him that he would turn his passion and curiosity for working with wine into a career. After successfully attending viticulture school, he gained practical experience in Germany and New Zealand before finally presenting his first own wine collection in 2006 and running the family winery himself just five years later.
In Austria, Markus Iro from Gols has already established himself as one of the best winemakers in the region. In the Neusiedlersee DAC region, the dynamic winemaker, who took over his parents' winery in 2011, cultivates around 22 hectares of national and international grape varieties. He attracts attention with his precise feel for the individual grape varieties. Not only consumers, but also the trade press appreciate his intuition and his feeling for wine and regularly attest to the quality of his daily work: Markus Iro has already won the Falstaff Red Wine Grand Prix in the Cuvée category, won the St. Laurent category and has been in the top three of the Falstaff red wine awards several times.
