For almost 900 years, the motto of the Sovereign Order of the Knights of Malta has been "Optimus quisque", which means "Simply the best". The Lenz Moser winery has been managing the castle vineyard since 1969. Since then, the vines in the almost 50 hectares of vineyards in the best locations of Mailberg have been renewed, so that today the typical Austrian varieties such as Grüner Veltliner and Blauer Zweigelt dominate. However, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Blauer Burgunder also find ideal conditions.
Many pioneering achievements have their origins in the traditional Mailberg winery, such as the ageing of red wines in barrels, malolactic fermentation and controlled, chilled fermentation. Since 2012, the Schlosshotel "Mailberg" has offered an even better service. The hotel and the neighbouring vicarage offer space for nine spacious double rooms and twelve elegant suites. From the rooms, the view extends out into the castle garden and over the vineyards of Mailberg to the neighbouring villages of the Weinviertel.
