Peter Masser’s winery is located in Fötschach, not far from Leutschach, and is known among gourmets not only for its wines but also for its second line of business: breeding Scottish Highland cattle. Near the South Styrian Wine Route, the Massers find ideal conditions for producing quality wine. In the Sernauberg, Oberglanz, and Schlingelberg single-vineyard sites—where the slope reaches up to 50 degrees—the conditions for the vines are ideal.
The range covers the typical South Styrian grape varieties: crisp Welsch Riesling, Morillon, various Burgundies, as well as Sauvignon Blanc and Muskateller; and in suitable years, sweet wines (ice wine, Ausbruch, Trockenbeerenauslese) are also produced.
Since 2016, Florian and Peter Masser have been pioneers in the field of PIWI grape varieties and cultivate the largest organic PIWI vineyard in Austria. But the father-son duo’s enthusiasm for experimentation doesn’t stop there: The Massers also own four stone vats, which are used to produce exciting wines with great potential.
