The Winery: Pichler-Krutzler
Elisabeth Pichler-Krutzler and Erich Krutzler, both viticulture-raised in their families – she in the Wachau and he in South-Burgenland. They so to say have been born into wine tradition.
After its founding in 2007, the Pichler-Krutzler winery immediately caused a sensation and is now considered one of Austria’s new world-class wineries that work organically without compromise.
Nestled in the unique landscape of the river Danube these sites, cultivated sustainably wiht respect for nature, yield wines reflecting each sublime terroir by all means – not due to quick enjoyment, but demanding regard and passion.
