The Sommer winery on the south-eastern slope of the Leithaberg has existed since 1698. In 2023, a new generation, Leo Jr. and his wife Kathrin, officially took over the helm of the traditional winery. Leo Jr. has been responsible for the style of the wines for several years now. But good things take time, and so many further developments have been carried out cautiously and are only gradually coming to the surface. Shifting traditional paths, taking a lot of good things from the past, reflecting the course of nature, making new connections with it: All of this nourishes their mindset - thinking freely, but with attitude, so that the dialog deepens. Doing everything right, but doing it boringly - that's not what they are passionate about. "We see the craft of wine as a continuous process that is never finished - often a bumpy road. We work out the goal along the way - when we see what needs to be done," say Kathrin and Leo, explaining their approach to winemaking.
