Herwald and Raphaela Hauleitner cultivate their vineyards in Wagram ob der Traisen near Traismauer. The family business has existed since 1932 and is run with the guiding principle "Drinking is a need, enjoying is an art". The goal is to produce purist wines with lots of fruit and texture for everyday use. New distributors at home and abroad are constantly joining in and enjoying their delicate products.
The exclusively hand-picked wines of the friendly winemaker couple are characterised by the terroir and focused on the character of provenance (Traisental DAC and Traisental DAC Reserve).
There are in the Traisental the terroir types loess, conglomerate and the somewhat heavier loamy clay soil on Oncophora (shell limestone). Above all, the dominant varieties such as Grüner Veltliner and Riesling, as well as Gelber Muskateller from the Bergen vineyard, are the hobbyhorses of the young winemaking couple.
To press clear and authentic wines has top priorit; minerality and varietal fruit are in the foreground. The predominant deep and chalky loess soil, especially in the top Sonnleithen site, guarantees full fruit, harmony and drinking pleasure. Three other site Veltliners are in focus: firstly, the Grüner Veltliner "Rosengarten", which grown on cool loess soil with greater proximity to the conglomerate, shows a very fine and filigree Veltliner flavour; secondly, the Grüner Veltliner "Venusberg", which presents a very creamy density and minerality on heavy and clayey soil, and finally the Grüner Veltliner "Parapluiberg". Furthermore, there is a Riesling "Spontan" from the Sonnleithen site, naturally fermented without the addition of yeast, and a deep, creamy sparkling wine from Grüner Veltliner Blanc de Blancs with twelve months of ageing.
The winery was "Falstaff Grüner Veltliner Grand Prix" winner 2009 and "Falstaff Traisental DAC Cup" winner 2016, 2018 and 2022 and double winner 2019 and 2021.
