About the Vineyard
Karl and Brigitta Steininger took over the winery located in Langenlois Kamptal, Austria from Karl's parents in 1980, back then it was a mixed farm with a few vineyards. Karl attended the wine-growing school and Brigitta grew up in a winery in Zöbing and knew the daily life of a family of winegrowers. Together they decided to quit farming and concentrate on winemaking, their vineyard is now over 135 acres. Very soon they saw that you could only score points with high quality wines, both in Austria and internationally. After some trips to Champagne country, they started creating sparkling wine in 1989 - which are produced with the exact same methodology and natural bubbles as Champagne. They specialize in both wine and sparkling wine (the noblest form of wine). Their moto is “Good wines are created only by the perfect interplay of many factors: in addition to the natural influences such as soil, climate and weather, our personal experiences and ideas also flow into our wines and thus give them a very special touch”.
