Austria 2023 by ombiasy WineTours took place from Sunday, May 28 - Thursday, June 08, 2023. We toured Austria for 12 days, starting and ending in Vienna: Wien, Wagram, Carnuntum, Burgenland, Steiermark, Wachau, Kamptal, Kremstal, Traisental, Wien.
Following a visit of:
Tour and Tasting at Weingut Neumeister, Straden, Vulkanland, Steiermark, with Christoph Neumeister - Austria 2023 by ombiasy WineTours
we explored in depth the beautiful, hilly Südsteiermark region which is famous for its crisp white wines. There is brilliantly fresh Sauvignon Blanc, delicious Welschriesling, crisp Schilcher and fruity Muskateller or Traminer. But also Burgundy varieties, above all Chardonnay - called Morillon here - thrive splendidly in Austria's southernmost wine-growing region. Nevertheless Sauvignon Blanc is king here.
We visited the following wineries in the Südsteiermark:
Weingut Sattlerhof, Sernau, Südsteiermark
Weingut Wohlmuth, Kitzek, Südsteiermark
Weingut Trummer, Spielfeld, Südsteiermark
Weingut Polz, Strass, Südsteiermark
Weingut Tement, Ehrenhausen, Südsteiermark
The visit of Weingut Sattlerhof comprised a visit of the vineyards and the cellar as well as tasting in the modern tasting room of Weingut Sattlerhof.
Juste Sattler, the wife of Andreas Sattler, was our host. Andreas has a bachelor’s degree in oenology and has been responsible for the cellar since 2014
Weingut Sattlerhoif is represented in the USA by Vineyard Brands.
Weingut Sattlerhof, Sernau, Südsteiermark
The idyllic Sattlerhof in Sernau, perched on a hill near Gamlitz in the middle of a vineyard, has been family-owned since 1887.
The winery belongs to the top addresses in Austria and the world, since the US magazine ‘Wine & Spirits’ included the Sattlerhof into the list of the 100 best wineries in the world in 2020.
Wilhelm Sattler sen. is considered a pioneer of dry winemaking in Styria, for which he was awarded the state's Golden Medal of Honor. Willi and Maria Sattler are running the winery together with their sons Andreas and Alexander.
The 87 acres of vineyards have vines up to 55 years old and are located in well-known sites such as Kranachberg, Sernauberg and the Pfarrweingarten monopoly site on steep slopes with an incline of up to 70 percent. Perfect physiological ripeness of the grapes, selective hand harvesting and puristic vinification are some of the artisanal steps with which the family has kept the quality of the wines at such high standards for decades.
The sons shifted to biodynamic winemaking with the aim that this meticulous working method allows the character of the excellent vineyards to evolve in the bottle even more.
