Winery

Old values – new paths. Wine has been pressed in our family for three generations. With boundless joy and deepest respect. 100 % Vulkanland Steiermark is our steadfast ideology: Only grapes from the Vulkanland Steiermark region are ever permitted into our cellars. Highest-quality wines with a distinctive personality and unambiguous origin are as much our goal as pure enjoyment with every sip. Our product palette may be subdivided into three categories: regional wines, represented by elegant, multifaceted classics; profound wines drawn from single vineyards Stradener Rosenberg, Buch, Steintal and Altes Steinkreuz; and local wines as an expressive happy medium between both of the aforementioned categories. With best wishes from, The Frauwallner Family
