Producer description of "Weingut Minkowitsch, Agnes Lehner-Minkowitsch, MA"

The winery is located in the municipality of Mannersdorf (Kirchengasse 14) in the southern Marchfeld in the wine-growing region Weinviertel (Lower Austria) east of Wien. Attached is the "Buschenschank am Rochusberg". Since 2016, the farm has been run by Agnes Lehner-Minkowitsch, assisted by her husband Lukas Lehner (graduate of the viticulture school Klosterneuburg). The vineyards cover seven hectares on loess soils. They are planted with the white wine varieties Grüner Veltliner, Chardonnay, Welschriesling, Pinot Blanc, Riesling, Sämling 88 (Scheurebe) and Müller-Thurgau, as well as with the red wine varieties Zweigelt, Blauburger and Roesler.

The vineyards are cultivated in a natural way, with great emphasis on pruning, foliage care and thinning out. Artificial irrigation has been used around the Rochusberg in the Kapellenfeld vineyard since 2001. After selective hand harvesting, the grapes are gently processed with controlled fermentation. The mostly dry, fruity white wines are matured in stainless steel tanks, the red wines in large wooden bar rels or in barrique. The premium wines of the house are Weinviertel DAC (Grüner Veltliner) and the red wine cuvée Rubin (Blauburger, Zweigelt). The winery is a member of the Marchweingärtner.
