Weingut Ubl-Doschek

The Weingut Ubl-Doschek in Kritzendorf near Klosterneuburg has been fully organic since 2008 and runs a Heuriger high up in the vineyards with a view of Vienna and the Danube floodplain. The young generation wants each wine to show what the individual site brings, often in a clear, purist style.

Heuriger in the vineyards

You reach the Heuriger via a short walk past traditional orchards. It is open (in season) on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays; for 2026 the website lists dates from March to December. It is closed on the last weekend in Sept. because of the grape harvest.

• On the plate: regional and Mediterranean dishes, plus fish dishes made from local freshwater fish
• Reservations: by e-mail by 11 h on the same day at the latest, or by phone; voicemail messages do not count
• Payment: cash only

Organic in the vineyard

The vineyards lie on the foothills of the Vienna Woods (Wienerwald) between Weidling and Höflein an der Donau, mostly on steep south and south-east-facing slopes. Cover crops are sown with seed mixtures chosen for each site, and for healthy, resilient vines the estate relies, among other things, on home-made teas of camomile, yarrow and nettle.

• Soils: from deep loess and loam to sandstone and calcareous sandstone
• Rieden (single vineyards): including Eichberg, Haschberg, Hofstätte, Paulinenberg, Kepper, Steingasse, Oberkreith and Kahle Leiten
• Hofstätte: a pure loess site with vines from the 1970s, the basis for the Grüner Veltliner Große Reserve

What is made in the cellar

Whether a wine matures in a steel tank, in barrique or in a large wooden barrel is decided for each wine. The range is broad:

• White: Grüner Veltliner, Riesling, Roter Veltliner, Sauvignon Blanc, Gemischter Satz, Weißburgunder and Chardonnay
• Rosé and red: Rosé, Rot Klassik and Rot Reserve
• Specialities: sparkling wine, sweet and Prädikat wines, natural and orange wines
• Alcohol-free: grape juices

Wine sales from the estate are available from Tuesday to Sunday; the estate asks you to call ahead.
