GRAPEVINE WINE BROKERS

Weingut Söllner

Toni Söellner is a small-scale producer of handcrafted Demeter certified biodynamic wines in the hills of the Donauland. Now called Wagram, this land looks over the Danube valley just to the east of the Kamptal. The vines grow on terraces of loess (some of the deepest deposits in the world), mussel-chalk, and red gravel, amidst herbs, legumes and wild flowers. The wines are aged in large oak foudre in the traditional Austrian fashion. These are very well balanced, very natural tasting, textured wines. The Wogenrain is a superb value, the Hengstberg being similar to a good Wachau, and all the wines have expressive minerality. Working in harmony with nature, with Daniela, his wife, Toni Söllner is not following a fad, but has practiced his biodynamic farming since 1995.

"To work and live with nature is our endeavor! We are striven to keep our land fertile and vital also for subsequent generations."
