WINEMAKING PHILOSOPHY

Geh-mish-ter Sah-ts: the “mixed set.” Today’s young inspired winemakers, led by Wieninger,

have discovered in these old mixed plantings a taste and a wine that is, as Fritz puts it, “all of

Vienna in one glass.” Now recognized by Slow Food International as a Presidio product, the

Wiener Gemischter Satz represents both the past and the future of winemaking in Vienna:

unique in its aspect and flavor, unique to the place from which it comes.

The Wieninger winery focuses on two different wines: a light style for everyday drinking and

a complex version from old vines on the famous Nussberg hill overlooking the city’s skyline.

The winery is also responsible for pioneering top-quality examples of French varieties in the

region, such as Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
