About the Manufacturer
The vineyards that today belong to Schloss Gobelsburg winery were established in 1171 by Cistercian monks from the Zwettl monastery. After a fire at the Kammern winery in 1786, they were transferred to Schloss Gobelsburg. Since 1996, the winery has been managed by Michael and Eva Moosbrugger. The estate owns 60 hectares of some of Austria's best vineyards, located on the terraces of Heiligenstein and Gaisberg, as well as between two hills in the valley of the town of Grub. Each vineyard has unique soil properties and microclimates. The most important varieties for the estate are Grüner Veltliner (50%) and Riesling (25%), which have proven to be the most suitable for the structure of the surrounding soil. Low yields and strict selection using sorting tables ensure a high level of quality of the grapes and the wines produced from them. In 2006, Michael Moosbrugger was named the best winemaker in Austria by the wine publication "Falstaff," and he has also repeatedly won awards for the best "Gruner Veltliner" and other wines.
