Weingut Blauensteiner

The Blauensteiner winery is located in the wine village of Gösing, nestled in a hollow in the middle of the Wagram. Great attention is paid to Grüner Veltliner, which accounts for around half of the vineyard area. A total of four Grüner Veltliner single-vineyard wines are currently on offer, from the light summer wine "Wilbling" to "Essenthal" and the full-bodied "Fumberg" to "Fumberg Privat". The second half of the vineyard is divided between Roter Veltliner, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Riesling, Gelber Muskateller and Zweigelt. The proportion of red wine is around 12 percent. The yellow loess soil has an extremely high water retention capacity and ensures the complexity of the wines' aromas. Dry, hot summers are predominant. The relative cooling during the night hours on the slopes of the Wagram - especially here at the altitude of Gösing - gives the wine fruitiness and a subtle aroma. The best vineyards cultivated by the Blauensteiner family include Essenthal, Fumberg, Gmirk and Wilbling. The Blauensteiner winery is a founding member of the "Weingüter Wagram".
