Description

Weinhof Waldschütz, established in 1849, is a family-owned winery located in Austria's Niederösterreich region, specifically in Wagram and Kamptal. Known for blending tradition with modern techniques, the winery benefits from generations of expertise and a commitment to sustainable viticulture. Ralph Waldschütz, the current winemaker, continues the legacy of producing elegant, terroir-driven wines that showcase the unique characteristics of their vineyards. The winery emphasizes the care of living soils and optimal vine health to craft expressive wines that highlight the essence of their origins.

The Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc) is a refined expression of Wagram’s terroir, offering delicate aromas of white peach, pear, and a touch of almond, complemented by hints of wild herbs and minerality. On the palate, it is beautifully balanced, featuring a creamy texture supported by vibrant acidity and subtle, stony notes that add depth. This elegant wine is vinified with meticulous care to preserve its purity and cool-climate character, resulting in a fine structure and a lingering, harmonious finish.

Weinhof Waldschütz’s vineyards are situated on sun-drenched slopes in Wagram and Kamptal. The Wagram vineyards are characterized by deep loess soils that contribute fruit-forward and fragrant nuances, while Kamptal’s primary rock soils bring a mineral spice to their wines. The unique climatic influences of these regions, combined with sustainable vineyard practices, allow the winery to cultivate high-quality grapes like Grüner Veltliner, Riesling, and Pinot Blanc, each reflecting the distinct terroir of their site.
