The winery with its headquarters in Rohrendorf was founded in 1986, when the Rohrendorf property of Lenz Moser AG was separated and an independent winery was established. Josef "Sepp" Moser (1929-2021), son of the high culture inventor and winegrowing pioneer Lenz Moser III. (1905-1978) and twin brother of Lenz Moser IV, handed over the management of the winery to son Nikolaus (Niki) in 2000. The business comprises two wineries in two different provinces. The main estate is located in the municipality of Rohrendorf in Lower Austria, the second winery is in the municipality of Apetlon in Burgenland. After several years of trials, all the vineyards were converted to biodynamic cultivation in 2006 according to the guidelines of the DEMETER organic association.

The vineyards of both farms cover a total of 52 hectares. In Rohrendorf near Krems in the Kamptal wine-growing region, the vineyards cover 24 hectares in the vineyards Breiter Rain, Schnabel and Gebling, which are mentioned in documents as early as 1284. Most of the vineyards are terraced with slopes of up to 45% and planted with the white wine varieties Grüner Veltliner, Riesling, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, as well as a small share of Pinot Noir. The premium wines include Veltliner Gebling, Riesling Gebling, Chardonnay Gebling and Sauvignon Blanc Schnabel.

The vineyards in Apetlon in the Neusiedlersee wine-growing region of Burgenland cover 28 hectares of vineyards. They are mainly planted with the red wine varieties Zweigelt, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, as well as the white wine varieties Muskat Ottonel, Chardonnay, Scheurebe and Weißburgunder (Pinot Blanc). The premium wines include the red wine Zweigelt Reserve, the red wine cuvée Banfalu (Zweigelt, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon), as well as the white wines Weißburgunder Beerenauslese and Chardonnay Trockenbeerenauslese. Around 300,000 bottles of wine are produced annually, of which around 60% are exported. The winery is a member of the Winzervereinigung Traditionsweingüter Österreich.
