The foundation stone for today's winery was laid by the great-great-grandparents Johann and Julianna Wagentristl in 1888, when they took over what was then "Hof Nr. 135" in Großhöflein. In addition to agricultural land, this also included vineyards. In the following decades, the family devoted themselves increasingly to viticulture. Gradually, livestock farming and field cultivation disappeared, while viticulture became more and more important. Over the course of time, "Hof Nr. 135" became today's winery in Rosengasse with vineyards on the gentle slopes of the Leithagebirge and its foothills.
The special composition of the soil, together with the region's special microclimate, creates a unique terroir that cannot be found anywhere else. "I am a friend of clear lines, and I also follow these in the vinification of my wines. This results in wines with an unmistakable character - wines with power and finesse. I want to make others happy with these wines, but also myself!" says winemaker Rudi Wagentristl.
