Buschenschank Familie Gilg

Weingut Gilg in Hagenbrunn in the Weinviertel is a family business in its fourth generation, with a Heuriger at Schlossgasse 33 and a wine shop with farm-gate sales at Hauptstraße 64–66. The family farms around 10 hectares in Hagenbrunn, Stetten and Wien-Stammersdorf.

From farm to winery

It all began in 1940 as a mixed farm with arable land, a vine nursery and animals at Schlossgasse 16. In the 1960s a small Buschenschank room was added, and in 1976 the Heuriger moved to Schlossgasse 33. Under Ludwig Gilg the business specialised in wine-growing and the Heuriger from 1995, and since 2011 Stefan Gilg has contributed his ideas. In 2018 the new production site with wine shop was built on Hauptstraße.

Hagenbrunn lies on a former seabed of shell limestone, sand and fossil deposits. The winery's most important vineyards include Aichleiten, Tagnern, Hofmauer, Plankenfeld and Neuberg.
