The winery
Our winery has been run with passion and dedication for around nine generations. Originally, my ancestors ran it alongside a bakery. For them, winemaking was always more than just a profession—it was a passion passed down through generations.
After graduating from the wine and fruit-growing school in Klosterneuburg in 2000, I took over the winery from my father, Franz Schmidl, in 2009. That year, we converted to organic farming, a milestone that has shaped our philosophy. Being named "Winemaker of the Year" was a special incentive for me to continue on this path.
I'm supported by my husband, who is also a graduate of the Viticulture and Fruit Growing School in Klosterneuburg. After studying food and biotechnology at BOKU, he now works as a research associate at Danube University Krems. But on weekends, his passion draws him to the vineyards, where he actively lends a hand.
Together we share the vision of further developing organic viticulture and combining the tradition of our family winery with new ideas.

Theresa
Our winery has been run by the same family for about six generations. My ancestors, including my father, Franz Schmidl, ran the winery alongside a bakery. It was always a great hobby for my ancestors, who also put a lot of heart and passion into it. I graduated from the wine and fruit growing school in Klosterneuburg in 2000. In 2009, I took over the winery and converted to organic farming. I was also named "Winemaker of the Year" that year.
