Domäne Wachau

In its modern wine store, Domäne Wachau proudly presents everything that grows on vineyards throughout the entire Wachau. It is one of the few wine cooperatives worldwide that also belongs to the top quality winemakers. Under a décor of light-colored wood and bright glass fronts, a modern cellar awaits visitors within age-old walls. The rich history of Wachau winegrowing is tangible here under the extensive brick vaults. The cellar tour ends at the Kellerschlössel.

Craftsmanship, terroir, and precision are the key values of Domäne Wachau under the leadership of Roman Horvath MW and Heinz Frischengruber. In close partnership with their vignerons, respect for nature and the soil dominates the hard work in the steep vineyards. With over 150 hectares of organic vineyards, Domäne Wachau is Austria's leading wine estate with organically cultivated vines. Organized into small parcels and worked mainly by hand, each vigneron cultivates less than two hectares on average — allowing them to focus on the needs of the individual plot. The wines from grand single vineyards (ried) such as Achleiten, Brandstatt, and Kellerberg reflect their unique origins and deliver a distinctive puristic style, with both depth and freshness. This is a next generation Wine Cooperative, as found nowhere else on Earth.
