About 30 km south of Vienna, amidst the vineyards near the village of Tattendorf, lies the Johanneshof Reinisch winery. The region, located at the western edge of the vast Pannonian Plain, has a long tradition of winemaking and is today among the most renowned wine centers in Austria.
The family comprises fourth-generation winemakers producing wine in Tattendorf. In 1923, the area they used for cultivating vineyards consisted of a plot of merely half a hectare in the Ried Mitterfeld vineyard. Today, Johanneshof Reinisch's vineyards cover an area of approximately 40 hectares, primarily in the vicinity of Tattendorf, as well as in Gumpoldskirchen and Guntramsdorf.
In 1995, a new wine production facility was built. It provided ideal conditions for producing exquisite wines. The family now boasts the most modern technology for all aspects of winemaking, including sorting machines, electronically controlled presses, facilities for controlled fermentation, and a large cellar built using a classic method with old bricks.
In Gumpoldskirchen's vineyards, grapes grow in nutrient-rich soil and at altitudes up to 400 meters. For many generations, it has been known that Zierfandler and Rotgipfler, which are not produced anywhere else in the world except in and around Gumpoldskirchen, are capable of producing excellent grapes under these conditions.
The soil around Tattendorf is particularly interesting from a geological perspective. The thermal fault line runs here from south to north, and an ancient sea has left its remnants. Large quantities of alluvial gravel are deposited in the stony "Tattendorfer Steinfeld", creating an ideal soil cover for growing Burgundy grape varieties.
With almost 2000 hours of sunshine per year, the Thermenregion, surrounding Tattendorf and Gumpoldskirchen, is one of the sunniest and driest regions in Austria. This ensures that the grapes reach optimum ripeness and that the varietal aromas develop to their fullest. The constant air movement between the plain in the east and the chain of hills in the north quickly dries the plants after rainfall, keeping the grapes healthy and protecting them from rot until peak ripeness.
