Die Familie Mehofer lebt und arbeitet bereits seit mehr als 300 Jahren am Neudeggerhof. Ihr zu Hause ist der Wagram, seine tiefgründigen Lössböden sind das wertvolle Fundament der Reben – allen voran der Grünen und Roten Veltliner, die zu den Lieblingssorten der Mehofers zählen. Weine aus der Riede Wadenthal stellen die Spitze des Sortiments dar, das bereits seit mehr als 25 Jahren ganz bio ist. Bienen, Piwi-Sorten, nachwachsenden Ressourcen, Leichtglasflaschen – all das sind Teile ihrer Lebensphilosophie, die man hier naturgemäsz nennt.
The Mehofer family has lived and worked on the Neudeggerhof estate for more than 300 years. Since 1992 all wines have been produced organically. Today, the tenth-generation is focusing on typical Austrian varieties such as Grüner and Roter Veltliner. Their favourite vineyard is Wadenthal – a unique site known for its great biodiversity. All the wines are characterized by deep layers of „Loess”. This particular type of soil provides a sound basis to the wines which are also strongly influenced by the crispiness and elegance of a rather cool Austrian climate. Despite wine, the family extracts honey from their own beehives, uses renewable resources for building, fills their wines in light-glass-bottles and grows trees for barrel production. All the mentioned activities are part of a philosophy that influences not only the family’s everyday work and wines, but also their lives and coming generations.
