Weingut Familie Auer

The organic Weingut Familie Auer at Pottendorfer Straße 14 in Tattendorf makes organic wines from the Thermenregion and, on fixed dates during the year, runs a Heuriger with an art gallery. The family's motto: „Von, für und mit der Natur!“ (From, for and with nature!)

Who runs the winery

The family includes Leopold and Herma Auer senior, Leopold and Helga, and the next generation, Lukas and Matthias. The two young men have launched their own line of natural wine: sheep and bees help out in the vineyard, the wine is bottled in stoneware bottles with labels made of hay paper, and each bottle comes with a scroll telling the story of the wine.

What is in the range

• Red from Tattendorf: Pinot Noir and St. Laurent Tattendorf DAC, plus St. Laurent from the Ried Holzspur
• White: Gumpoldskirchner Tradition DAC from Rotgipfler and Zierfandler, a Noir de Blancs
• Sparkling: Rosé Frizzante
• Young wines: WeißGenuss and RotGenuss, every year the first wines of the new vintage
• Home-made: organic products of its own making in the online shop

The business cites awards from the Falstaff, Vinaria and Gault-Millau guides, two state wins and 94 points for the Pinot Noir Reserve 2017 in the Falstaff Rotweinguide 2020.

Heuriger, gallery and wine vending machines

Every Heuriger is accompanied by an art exhibition in the gallery, from abstract modern art to classical painting. Organic wine is also available around the clock, regardless of opening hours: in the Ortsvinothek Weinbox on Raiffeisenplatz in Tattendorf and at wine vending machines in Pfaffstätten and Siegenfeld. The machine in Pfaffstätten stands in a wooden barrel in the vineyards on the 1. Wiener Wasserleitungsweg and gets its electricity from photovoltaics on the roof. Tattendorf can be reached on the Aspangbahn from Vienna and Wiener Neustadt.
