Winery Zöhrer The tradition is alive - anno 1270

The roots of the winery & family Zöhrer anno 1270 go back up to the time of the Babenberger in the history of Austria. Around 1300 Albrecht I (1255-1308) enfeoffed twenty of his most loyal followers with farmland, orchards and vineyards in and around Weinzierl (today a district of Krems), the feudal lords of Krems/Weinzierl.The Fam. Zöhrer was one of them, and today it is the last international active winery of the feudal lords of Krems / Weinzierl. The knowledge and the tradition was put Anton Zöhrer in the cradle through generations.We work consistently on it to exhaust the potential of the big single vineyards, which belong to the most important of the Kremstal. The strength of the winery Zöhrer lies in the terroir of the single vineyard/Ried/Cru Kremser Sandgrube, Ried Kremser Weinzierlberg, Ried Kremser Gebling, Ried Kremser Thurnerberg, Ried Kremser Limberg & Ried Kremser Goldberg. The vines were largely plantet by grandfather & father 40-80 years ago. The profile of the wine is unmistakable, they are very indicative of the terroir and take pleasure to international esteem.

“The art of winemaking great wines is to keep the creation as simple as possible”
