The winery is located in Neustift am Walde (part of the 19th district of Döbling) in the north-west of the Austrian capital Wien. The first part of the name is derived from the Fuhrgassl (a small alley) next to the house. Attached is a Heuriger, which is one of the best known in Wien. The business is run by Ernst and Gerti Huber. There is even a Viennese song about this Heuriger, the first verse of the lyrics: At the Fuhrgassl Huber in Neustift am Wald, there the Drahrers meet, young and old. His wine is so delicious and tastes so good, you can't say "no" to such good wine. (na = no, tulli = great or grand, Drahrer = reveler). The foundation walls of the house date back to 1683 - the year of the Second Siege of Vienna by the Turks. The first owner mentioned in the chronicle before 1733 was a certain Legoux, then in 1781 the property passed to the ancestors of the present owners.

The family estate also includes the Fuhrgassl-Huber country house (Neustift), the Hauerkuchl wine tavern restaurant (Neustift), the Huber wine tavern (Ottakring) and the 10er-Marie wine tavern (Ottakring), which are run by the four daughters of the family. The vineyards cover about 38 hectares of vineyards, 28 hectares of which are in Neustift am Walde (Rieden Hofstädten, Mitterberg, Neuberg, Opferkolben) and 10 hectares in the Großlage Nußberg and in the district part Grinzing.

About 80% of the vineyards are planted with the white wine varieties Grüner Veltliner, Riesling, Traminer, Welschriesling, Chardonnay, Müller-Thurgau, Neuburger,Pinot Blanc and Silvaner, and about 20% with the red wine varieties Blaufränkisch, Zweigelt, Blauburger and St. Laur ent. Premium wines include Rheinriesling Nußberg Vienna Classic and Weißer Burgunder Vienna Classic. A bottle-fermented sparkling wine is also produced. The winery is a member of the vintners' associations Traditionsweingüter Österreich, Vienna Classic and WienWein.

Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
