Thirty-five hectares of organically and biodynamically cultivated vineyards and a tireless quest for improvement and perfection characterise the activities of the Sattler family in Gamlitz, Styria. This wine-growing region with over 2,600 hectares under vine is the southernmost in Austria and has Sauvignon as its main grape variety. The year 2021 is an important milestone for Sattlerhof because it is the first respekt-BIODYN certified vintage, an association for biodynamic viticulture founded in 2007 and based in Austria. The estate's most important cru, such as Kranachberg, Pfarrweingarten, Kapellenweingarten and Sernauberg, are characterised by quartz and limestone, depending on their location. The low yields of the old vines, the steep slopes, the hand picking, the selection of the grapes in small crates, the pressing and the gentle handling during vinification result in authentic wines with high ageing potential. Willi Sattler's legacy is in good hands, entrusted to his sons Andreas and Alexander. The name Sattlerhof is now enshrined as a guarantee of high quality and exceptional experience, a symbol of Styria with its elegant, precise, sincere wines in pursuit of essentiality.
