Braunstein wine estate

Wine has been made on this farm in Purbach, Burgenland, since 1632. It is a tradition that Birgit Braunstein continues with a tremendous passion for organic viticulture and a sure hand in business. She vinified her first wine in 1996 and was named Winegrower of the Year by Gourmedia in 2005. Today she is among the 'selected winegrowers' of the Austrian Wine Salon. Her vineyards stretch along the Leitha Mountains, overlooking Lake Neusiedl. Here, slate, shell limestone and crystalline quartz provide the perfect foundation for great terroir wines. The Pannonian climate and its warm winds give the wines a special ripeness, while the fresh, cool night air ensures fruitiness and finesse. Her many award-winning terroir wines, with their high ripeness, structure and minerality, have impressed not only juries but also leading international restaurants. Her wines can even be enjoyed in Japan. In 2006, Birgit Braunstein married winegrower Martin Pasler: a partnership of two outstanding winegrowers who support and challenge each other. Yet Birgit Braunstein is also a custodian of the landscape. That, at least, is how she describes her work, for she is grateful to nature and feels obliged to care for it. Her latest project, 'Wildwux', conveys a message of habitat restoration and biodiversity. Native herbs and trees are planted on 30% of the 22 hectares, allowing nature to flourish and expand.
