This ten hectare estate is situated in the Kremstal region near the River Danube west of Vienna. Today it is run by Marlies Hanke with her husband Florian who splits his time at the estate with a full time job.
Marlies’ mother Helma is now retired, but had tirelessly run the estate since 1986, being joined in 2009 by Marlies. They grow mainly Grüner Veltliner with Riesling, Chardonnay and a bit of Gelber Muskateller and Zweigelt. Fermentation is in stainless steel for the less expensive wines and the Rieslings while the top Grüner Veltliners are made in used, not new, barriques
