Zillinger Herbert

Winery description

Herbert Zillinger graduated from the vocational high school (HBLA) for Viniculture and Fruit Production in Klosterneuburg, and followed this with studies at the Wine Academy in Rust, receiving the WSET Diploma in Wine and Spirits. In 1998, the then 20-year-old took over his parents' winery with seven hectares of vineyards. Today the winery include twelve hectares, all under conversion to organic land management. The organic certification process for the entire vineyard will be completed in 2015.

Herbert Zillinger is building his line of wines in four stages, from the lightly fruity variant to the matured radical. Each stands on its own, and each stakes its own claim to being of the highest quality. Honesty and depth, corners and edges. These attributes apply to him equally as to his wine
