WINES
Martin Diwald took over stewardship of his Wagram based family estate in 2006, the first |in Austria to be certified organic. He has since gone further and converted to biodynamics and become one of the young guns of RESPEKT - a germanic led collective dedicated to producing high quality products that regenerate the planet. The Luft & Liebe wines are experimental, oxidatively aged wines whilst his 1ÖTW wines are more classic in style. All are biodynamic certified.
“A farm should develop its own atmosphere in which everyone feels at home: the winemaker, his family, the people who live and work there, the animals in the house, the vines in the vineyard and the earthworms beneath the vines. An atmosphere in which everyone thrives. And it is foolish to believe that if one of them suffers, the others won’t be affected.”

Goldberg is one of the best single vineyards in the village. Terraces and hills which slope towards the Danube Valley and mighty loess soils build the foundation for the Goldberg wines.

Together with Goldberg, Eisenhut is the warmest vineyard site in Grossriedenthal. A 100% Southern slope of burnt loess, where, if you dig far down enough you will even find ironstone, which gives this vineyard its name. Here, the Riesling grapes ripen very late and also contain less sugar than the Goldberg fruit.

100% Riesling
Biodynamic
A single vineyard Riesling. Goldberg is one of the best single vineyards in the village. Terraces and hills which slope towards the Danube Valley and mighty loess soils build the foundation for the Goldberg wines. The Riesling from this site grows on an often dry and hot Southern slope with plenty of loess and a relatively thin layer of hummus.
