CARNUNTUM | ÖSTERREICH

OUR GRAPE VARIETIES –
ROOTED IN CHARACTER. SHAPED BY TERROIR.

Carnuntum is the home of Zweigelt. Grown on clay and gravel soils without irrigation, it develops the depth, elegance and character for which the region is renowned.

Blaufränkisch reaches its full potential on lean, limestone-rich and sandy-calcareous soils. These diverse terroirs give the variety its precision, freshness and unmistakable sense of place.

Chardonnay thrives in the cooling breezes of the Danube floodplains. Together with limestone-rich clay soils, these conditions create wines of elegance, freshness and precision.

Grüner Veltliner, Austria’s signature grape variety, flourishes on the loess-rich slopes of the Arbesthal hills, where generations of cultivation have shaped its distinctive character.

The Single Vineyard Wines

Our single-vineyard wines bear the name of their respective vineyard (Ried), expressing the distinctive character and exceptional quality of each site while reflecting the full potential of its unique terroir.

68% Merlot, 22% Blaufränkisch
10 % Cabernet Franc

The longer one examines the nose of this wine, the greater the variety of aromas that unfold: plums and blackberries, tobacco and orange zest, bright raspberries and dark cherries, cinnamon and pepper, cloves and cedar. Fine tannins provide the wine with a solid structure, while the finish is lightly salty and thus rather striking.

An authoritative and complex example of the Pinot family, one that does not spare the opulence – although at the same time its salty minerality and tightly woven texture provides distinctive elegance.

Auswählen & Kennenlernen

JoMa – Johanna Markowitsch

“Because life is often complicated enough, it is necessary to indulge simplicity now and then. JoMa reflects the naturalness of being. We let the nature take its course – this is how we create wines that are without frills. The grapes are pressed with “Putz and Stingl” before being vinified as a naturally sparkling or still wine without sulfur. You can’t go more natural than that.”

“I wanted to create something independent with a youthful touch. Light on its feet, but fun!” Johanna Markowitsch
