GRASSROOTS CONSCIOUSNESS
To
work and live with nature is our endeavour!
We
produce natural, memorable, and tasty wines as well as other
products such as fruit distillates, fruit rudiments, sparkling
wine.
Our plants prosper in coexistence with a variety of other plants
and species from flora and fauna. Since 1997, our land has been
worked due to the guidelines of organic farming and is currently controlled by the state
control authority.
What is organic winegrowing?
Due to the EU codex it is legally controlled and means, roughly,
that we aren't allowed to use any synthetic substances or
pesticides which would be absorbed by the vine's leaves. Thus,
our wines and other products don't include any serious residua.
Since a few years, we've had and still have the possibility to
enlarge and arrondieren our land which is naturally of great
importance to in order to create specific biotops and not merely
to work in a monotone vineyard landscape. Due to the small-sized
structure, the sites around Gösing offer best conditions. At
Berg Eisenhut, we presently have optimal conditions for creating
an ideal biotop on around 5 ha. land. This led to our decision
to get involved in biodynamic cultivation which means to
conceive our farm as a complex entirety and, by means of
ruminant droppings resp. dynamised compounds and compost derived
from these, to forward the vitalization of our land with its
micro-organisms, worms etc., as well as in consideration of the
influence of planets and stars, as really good, light wine with
spirit and character can only rise on vital grounds. But this
goes for any ground-grown fruit.
We are striven to keep our land fertile and vital also for
subsequent generations.
