The Lower Austrian regional wine award has been awarding local wines year after year for 34 years. The big award ceremony usually takes place at the Lower Austrian wine gala, but it had to pause due to Corona. A total of 925 companies presented themselves to the jury this year, around 6,000 wines were tasted and rated. Including some of ours – with success! Six of our fine wines made it to the finals, and our Cuvée Colloredo was recognized as the region winner. In addition, we have been named winery of the year – for the 6th time!

Every year in June everything revolves around regional wines for a week in the Retz Sparkasse Garden. In the course of the Retz Wine Week, not only is tasting and evaluation, but there is also the opportunity to get to know the area and the local winegrowers.

Even if there were no official celebrations around the Retz Wine Week this year, we still have a lot to celebrate! Our Grüner Veltliner Antlasbergen, a new addition to our whites, impressed in the “Classic Grüner Veltliner” category and won the title of variety winner 2021!

Our WINZAGIN combines juniper berries with sweet elderberry and lavender blossoms, fruity lemon zest with sweet and bitter orange peel. A touch of Curacao shell meets coriander, nutmeg, iris roots and Chinese cinnamon. Anise and angelica root round off.

The careful selection of botanicals and their harmonious interplay give our WINZAGIN one thing above all else: character. And make it so indispensable for all those who rely on proven quality and innovative taste.

100% healthy grape material and an elaborate ripening process are the basis of our premium organic wine line unique. The series includes three extraordinary white wines, vintage 2018. Not only the wines of the edition unique are truly unique, some of the bottles are now too – thanks to artist Akira Sakurai! He has artistically refined a limited number of unique bottles, which are available online.

Our Rosé Brut Juwella shines through the glass of the bottle in an auspicious, saturated pink, sunbeams break in the golden shimmering label. Not only a visual jewel, the organic sparkling wine specialty from traditional bottle-fermentation also has many facets in terms of taste: Ripe strawberries meet juicy vineyard peach, accompanied by a fine tingling sensation. This is how small moments become great moments.

Some things are different this year than usual and so many of us stay away from the ski areas this year. Our Grüner Veltliner and our Blauer Zweigelt in the limited Après Ski Edition ensure après ski fun at home!

Good to take away, better to drink straight away: In a handy can, “Achterlastig” brings together what belongs together. Namely, a fine dry Herak with a refreshing tonic. The practical can fits in every pocket and ensures tingly pleasure in no time at all!

In time for Christmas, two real Hagn classics, the Grüner Veltliner Hundschupfen and the Blauer Zweigelt, are presented in a Christmas-shimmering presentation. The limited special edition is available in both flavors as a 0.75l bottle and as a magnum bottle!

Although the conditions were not easy this year, the participation for the Falstaff Red Wine Guide 2021 was surprisingly high. Almost 1400 red wines from all over Austria were submitted, including of course some of ours. Our Cuvée Avus got the most points (93 points), 92 points for the Cuvée Colloredo and 91 for the Cuvée Komptur.

The leading international quality award for wine, the annual awc vienna, has existed in this form for 17 years and is one of the most renowned wine competitions. We too faced the international comparison this year and were convincing across the board.

It tastes like summer lightness and freedom in bottles – our FiLiUS 2020. In terms of taste, the refreshing white is reminiscent of green apples, the aromas of summery, fruity limes lend youthful freshness and a touch of white pepper provides exciting moments of pleasure. A wine for the spontaneous, for connoisseurs and for all those for whom the little things mean great freedom.

Much was different this year and so the state awards for SALON Wine 2020 did not take place as usual. In a multi-stage process, the professional jury tasted around 7,000 wines from different regions and selected the 270 best wines. We are pleased this year about awards for our Blauer Zweigelt 2019, our Cuvée Komptur and our Cuvée Colloredo. Shop the winning wine package here.

The Weinviertel DAC brand has been operating successfully for 17 years and focuses on the Weinviertel’s flagship – the Grüner Veltliner. Weinviertel DAC is therefore both a pioneer and a trailblazer in domestic origin marketing.

The brand clearly communicates the full taste of the Weinviertel: fruity, fresh and wonderfully peppery.

The finest whites from the region are judged at the Weinviertel DAC Trophy. Over 150 wineries took part, and two of our white wines were awarded a lot of points: 93 points were awarded for our Green Hunter, 90 points for our classic Weinviertel DAC.

Every year, the crème de la crème of local wine presents itself to the expert jury at the Lower Austrian wine gala. The event is considered the largest covert evaluation in Lower Austria, with almost 900 regional companies submitting a total of more than 5,000 wines every year. Some of our wines were also tasted and rated under strict conditions. This year a noble red wins – our Blauer Zweigelt 2019!

For the 8th time we were able to win the title of „Landessieger“ with our Blauer Zweigelt, which fills us with tremendous pride!

The annual „Retzer Weinwoche“ is a real fixture in the calendar: As part of the event in early summer, wines from various regional companies are presented and tasted in the Weinviertel municipality. Music and delicacies from the region round off the program. Due to the corona, the event could not take place as usual this year, but it was tasted and rated. Our fine wines convinced, we won 2nd place!

With „unique“ we have created a premium organic wine line that focuses on the special, the “unique”. And that starts with the production: 100% healthy grape material is processed, and it is stored and matured in wooden barrels. 2018 was again a truly “unique” vintage that produced three noble varieties: unique Grüner Veltliner, unique Riesling and unique Chardonnay produced that vintage.

In December 2018 we welcomed a very special new addition to our family: Ella-Rosa, the daughter of Wolfgang and Carina Hagn. Because Ella-Rosa is much more precious than a gemstone for our family – and because our new sparkling wine from traditional bottle fermentation is exactly the same vintage – our new product also bears her name: Here comes Juwella!

“Juwella is the perfect companion for special occasions but also for a relaxed brunch with the girls,” says Carina Hagn. Fine berry aromas, the freshness of a vineyard peach and a wonderfully animating, sparkling finish make this sparkling wine a pleasure for more with every sip.

Starting with the golden glitter of the label, the popping of the cork and the pearls in the glass – feel the tingle and experience the intense taste of our new sparkling wine!

Juwella is now available in our online shop – we hope you enjoy it!

A new visitor area and a larger kitchen now offer even more enjoyable moments!

In the cold winter months we did not say goodbye to hibernation, but gave the Weindomizil a new face. The renovation has been completed since the beginning of February and we are very happy with the result – step into the wonderful ambience of our oasis of pleasure in the Weinviertel!

We have not only expanded and embellished the visitor area, but also enlarged the kitchen. Chef Harald Riedl, who will have even more space for his culinary creations in the future, is particularly pleased about this. Look forward to cozy hours, enjoyable moments and unforgettable evenings in the newly designed Weindomizil – we look forward to your visit!

Even though the ProWein trade fair unfortunately had to be postponed, wines from all over the world were still assessed during the selection tasting.

In total, the independent jury awarded over 10,000 wines from 4,000 suppliers using the blind process according to the internationally recognized 100-point system. Three of our wines are also among the winners: Hundschupfen 2019, Antlasbergen 2019 and our Green Hunter 2018. This is a success that we are particularly pleased about because it once again proves that our winery convinces with quality and taste and is among the best of the world.

Welcome to the wine assortment: Our Grüner Veltliner Ried Antlasbergen convinces with its interesting fruit spectrum!

We have a new addition to our wine selection, namely our Ried Antlasbergen 2019. Look forward to a Grüner Veltliner that impresses with its bright, yellow-green color and an interesting range of fruits – whether as a meal companion for Austrian and Asian cuisine or as wine for a long time Evenings: With the Ried Antlasbergen 2019 you are sure to make the right choice!

Despite the new location, the wine comes from vines 15 to 20 years old, is accordingly fruity and has a powerful spectrum. Quince, citrus notes, meadow herbs and white stone fruit are just a few of the numerous flavors this wine has for you. The Ried Antlasbergen is now available in our online shop and of course also directly from us in Mailberg.

The AWC (Austrian Wine Challenge) Vienna selects the best wines worldwide every year – through blind tasting and strict guidelines. Almost 13,000 wines from 42 countries were honored this year – we are proud that three of our wines were awarded gold!

Two of our red wines were able to convince the jury: Both our Cuvée Colloredo 2017 and our Cuvée Komptur 2017 received a gold rating from the largest officially recognized wine rating in the world. This proves once again: Even the red wines from the Weinviertel don’t have to hide!

The third gold boy is our unique Chardonnay 2017, which once again confirms the quality of our unique range. Special grapes, careful hand picking and a long maturation period make this wine so uniquely exotic and special! What a great success!
