Strehn Monika

Producer description of "Weingut Familie Strehn"

The winery is located in the municipality of Deutschkreutz in the Austrian wine-growing region of Mittelburgenland. The business was established after the Second World War by Josef and Theresia Strehn with the three pillars of arable farming, livestock farming and viticulture. In the 1960s, they began to concentrate on viticulture. Since 1993, the estate has been run by Monika Strehn. The quality criteria are careful vineyard work, late harvesting, low yields per hectare and careful processing in the cellar. The Australian Flying Winemaker Michael Gadd contributed a great deal of expertise. Young winemaker Patrick J. W. Pfneisl is responsible for vinification (after gaining practical experience as a vintage winemaker at top Californian and Australian wineries).

The vineyards cover 45 hectares of vines in the Baumerl, Baumfeld, Birii, Frauenbrunn, Goldberg, Höblisch, Hochberg, Kart, Sandäcker and Tschikker vineyards. They are 90% planted with the red wine varieties Blaufränkisch, Zweigelt, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, St. Laurent, Merlot, Syrah and Pinot Noir, and 10% with the white wine varieties Welschriesling, Grüner Veltliner and Chardonnay. The premium wines include the red wine cuvées "Pandur" (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Syrah), "Kult" (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Zweigelt), "Vin Villa" (Blaufränkisch, St. Laurent, CS) and "Rhapsodie" (Cabernet Franc, Syrah), as well as Mittelburgenland DAC (Blaufränkisch). A red wine liqueur is also produced.
