Let us tell you step by step: The first good news is, that our Weinviertel DAC Reserve HUNDSLEITEN is listed in the Salon again, which is one of Austria's most recommended wine guides. In this guide HUNDSLEITEN represents our PFAFFL.Pfeffer — you remember the typical peppery spice in our Grüner Veltliners — in the category of full bodied Grüner Veltliners.

Next, we were very excited when the new Austrian wine guide by Vinaria arrived. There our winery earns 4 stars and is therefore amongst the 37 best wineries in Austria. Two of our wines — Grüner Veltliner GOLDJOCH and Riesling AM BERG — are described by Vinaria as "Top wine, considering its provenance and vintage it is one of Austria's best wines, which counts as top wine even compared internationally". Also remarkable are the four wines being titled as excellent: Grüner Veltliner HUNDSLEITEN, Chardonnay ROSSERN, St. Laurent ALTENBERG und Heidrom. The last mentioned wine is described as "impressing in every phase, great potential."

Finally we are very happy about the following little story: At the Vievinum — maybe Austria's most noble wine exhibition — a delegation of Austria's Gastronomy Magazine ÖGZ including its chief editor Walter Tucek came to us and handed out a certificate displaying our Grüner Veltliner HUNDSLEITEN as winner of 5 glasses, which entitles it as one of Austria's best white wines. This pleasing result is written down in the wine guide of the ÖGZ named Österreichs beste Weißweine. In this guide our HUNDSLEITEN wins the category Mineral, too. Furthermore, its a bit more tangy colleague Weinviertel DAC ZEISENECK gives us reason to cheer: It wins the category food companion — a beautiful compliment for our PFAFFL.Pfefferl.
