The Tement winery was established in 1959. Josef and Edina Tement started with just two hectares of vines. The Zieregg and Grassnitz vineyards are located on both sides of the house. Manfred Tement had to take over the small family winery too young, after his father died prematurely. The only advantage the young winemaker had was his father's good reputation. Since then, many things have changed, and the Tement winery is constantly evolving. However, one thing never changes: the love for wine and the ambition to achieve the best quality. Today, the winery is managed by Armin Tement and his brother Stefan. The two brothers were born and raised at the winery, and taking over the family business was their calling.

Armin completed his education in 2005 and undertook several internships abroad and in Austria. Today, he is responsible for the family winery. He works hand in hand with his father Manfred and gained full trust for all production in 2008. The two make a good team and develop their vineyards in accordance with the principles of organic culture.

The first 10 hectares were converted to 100% organic plantings, with more and more vineyards.

With the 2008 vintage, Tement was officially certified organic. In 2019, the vineyards in Slovenia followed.

In 2009, the international jury of "The 50 best vineyards of the world" selected the Tement winery as one of the 15 wineries in the world worth visiting.
