Wines with a personal touch
Our commitment to quality begins in the vineyard. We tailor our work to each site, grape variety and vintage. All of our grapes are hand-picked in autumn and then gently processed. This same level of care continues during vinification and maturation, where we take a restrained approach, allowing the natural properties and characteristics of our vineyard sites to shine through in our wines. By minimizing intervention, we preserve the unique qualities that make each vintage distinct, resulting in wines that are a true reflection of our terroir. Our range consists of wines with a clear, individual personality that are categorized into four wine lines with different styles.

Our Classic MERUS wines embody their Latin name, which means "pure and genuine". These wines are known for their varietal character and natural elegance. Fermented in steel and concrete barrels, the wines are bottled while young and authentic. The result: open, fresh, and approachable wines that are easy to drink.
The selection TURMHOF is named after the historic residence and ancestral seat of our winery, "Castel Turmhof". The grapes are sourced from several selected hillside vineyards located up to 900 meters above sea level. They remain on the lees for several months, are partly aged in wooden barrels and brought to maturity, with particular attention paid to the sensory complexity of the respective grape variety as well as its structure and elegance.
The LINTICLARUS Selection pays homage to the decayed Castrum Linticlar fortress, which once overlooked our winery. This wine line features three unique red wines and a late harvest, all of which showcase a deep connection to their place of origin. The grapes are carefully selected from small, proven vineyard sites, and then gently vinified and aged in small oak barrels. The resulting complexity of these wines guarantees an exceptional drinking experience and extended aging potential.
The Selection VIGNA upholds the tradition of Grand Cru, which strictly adheres to cultivating first-class wines from a single location. Our strength lies in our knowledge of the optimal interplay between accurate soil care, grape varieties, and climatic conditions. Through precise management of crop yield, gentle pressing techniques, and extended maturation periods, the resulting wines take on a distinct identity and character that is easily identifiable.
Our Ad Tempus collection showcases older vintages of our finest wines, aged to perfection under ideal conditions in our cellar and intentionally released after years of bottle maturation, each marked with our distinctive seal.
