Description

Rudi Pichler's family has been involved with viticulture in the Wachau for many generations. In 1904, the small family farm was taken over by Johann Pichler; later, it was passed to Rudolf Pichler Sr., who in turn passed it on to his son, Rudolf Jr. Rudi III took over the reigns in 1997. In 2004, along with the construction of the new cellars a working area designed to modern quality standards was created. Currently, Pichler operate 12.5 hectares of vineyards, with grapes from an additional 3 hectares utilized through contracts with other vintners. Grüner Veltliner represents 65% of Pichler's vineyards, with Riesling totaling 30%, and the remaining 5% made up of Weissburgunder (Pinot blanc) as well as other varieties. All of these are vinified in the Vinea Wachau quality categories of Steinfeder, Federspiel and Smaragd.
