Petra Unger's wines tell of passion and loving craftsmanship. The eleven hectares of vineyards lie on both sides of the Danube at the gateway to the Wachau. On the steep primary rock terraces of the Gaisberg and Hinters Kirchl vineyards, natural stone walls typical of the region store the warmth of the day for elegant, mineral Rieslings. From here, the view extends across the Danube to the sun-drenched Gottschelle and Oberfeld vineyards, which stretch out at the foot of Göttweig Abbey.
Petra Unger wants to bring out the full character of the region in the glass. The regulating power of the Danube, cool downslope winds and warming Pannonian influences provide her with a very special climatic framework - ideal conditions for her expressive, fresh white wines, but also for elegant red wines.
As a member of "Traditionsweingüter Österreich", Petra Unger is proud that her award-winning wines are allowed to carry the "1ÖTW" label as an indication of "Erste Lagen". She also looks beyond the rim of her glass in the "11 women and their wines" association. In 2010, she began a cooperation with her winemaking colleague Josef Edlinger in order to utilize operational synergies. However, each of them remains responsible for making the wine themselves and thus for their own unmistakable signature. Petra Unger ships her wines to many countries around the world.
