Winery
The Sepp Moser-estate (51 in total) is spread over two different wine regions. In the Kremstal the grapes for white wines are grown on south exposed terraces while in the plains of the Neusiedlersee-area the production is focused on reds and dessert wines. Demeter-certification was obtained in vintage 2009. Sepp Moser-wines are never loud but always full of vividness and elegance.
