For Karl Fritsch, winemaking means focusing on the fundamentals of tradition to determine future decisions because only on the basis of traditional experiences and values, combined with contemporary inspirations, can cultural assets be preserved and new values created.
The 30 hectare estate produces about two-thirds of white wine, mainly Grüner Veltliner and Riesling, and one-third of red wine. The symbiosis of climate and soil in the Wagram provides excellent conditions for Grüner Veltliner. If you are looking for the core talent of the Weinberghof, the best choice is Grüner Veltliner, which is offered here both as a light summer wine and in the subtle style of site specific wines such as Steinberg and Schlossberg. Among the reds, the Foggathal cuvée is one of Austria's best and most renowned, but the juicy Pinot Noir also has an excellent reputation.
Winemaker Karl Fritsch is at the helm of the Weinberghof. He has an excellent reputation among the winemakers of the Wagram region for his innovations and his ability to put them into practice, as evidenced by the growing number of customers and the awards won by his wines. For Karl Fritsch, nature and its resources have been at the forefront of his work since he converted to biodynamics in January 2006. For him, working with nature is not only an obligation but also a privilege. At the end of 2007, the Karl Fritsch winery was accepted into the "Traditionsweingüter Österreich" circle, which underlines its essential role in the Wagram region.
