Winzerhaus Kitzler

The Winzerhaus Kitzler in Rohrendorf bei Krems makes Kremstal wines from loess soils and also runs a Heuriger in the Rohrendorf Kellergasse and guest rooms at the winery. The wines are sold under the name Loesswerk, and the motto is "Loess, Zeit und Liebe" (loess, time and love).

Loess is a calcareous sediment deposited by the wind during the Ice Age. According to the Winzerhaus, the deep, fertile soil produces high-quality grapes and wines with fine minerality almost every year. In the cellar the winery relies on patience: the wines are meant to mature at their own pace so that they gain tension and longevity.

Under the name EPOS there is a Grüner Veltliner from 2019 and a Zweigelt from 2018.
