Winzerhof Supperer

The Winzerhof Supperer at Rossatz 51 in the Wachau is a family winery with a Heuriger that makes Grüner Veltliner and other wines from the Ried Steiger, Ried Kreuzberg and Ried Frauenweingärten. It is run by Wolfgang and Bernadette Supperer, and the whole family tends the vineyards.

From fruit growing to a winery

In 1983 Maria and Karl took over the wine and fruit growing business. In 2000 the Heuriger opened in order to sell everything they produced directly. In 2004 Wolfgang made his first vintage entirely according to his own ideas, in 2008 he passed his master craftsman's examination and Bernadette joined the business. In 2014 a new cellar was built in front of the winery because the old one had become too small.

Three lines in the Wachau style

• Steppengras: the lightest wines, fresh and fruity, such as the Junger Wachauer
• Schwalbe: medium-bodied, fruity wines to accompany food
• Eidechse: the full-bodied wines from the best sites, mostly from late harvests and good for ageing

The sites

• Steiger: between the Rossatzbach and Rossatz near the Danube, deep soils for delicately fruity wines and rich Smaragd wines
• Kreuzberg: at the transition to the Dunkelsteiner Wald, cool downslope winds and gneiss produce elegant wines; rare orchids grow on the dry grassland
• Frauenweingärten: hillside site with nutrient-rich soil, mainly Grüner Veltliner

The wines are also available in the online shop.
