Wess

Winery description

The winery was founded in 2003 in a cellar rented by Rainer Wess in Unterloiben. In 2009, it was possible to purchase former cellar buildings owned by the Wilhering Abbey, located in Sandgrube in Krems. Now the estate is run by the father-daughter combination of Rainer and Christina Wess. We work in tandem in both the vineyards and the winery.We cultivate approximately 13 hectares, and purchase a further two hectares of grapes. For the past two years, the estate has been a member of the “Österreichischen Traditionsweingüter”, and has set itself the goal of bringing the potential of the distinctive, great vineyard sites into the glass of wine, as purely and genuinely as possible.

Our purpose is to perform sustainable grape production with consideration and respect.
