Born to make wine

Wine is our mission

Born to make wine

The motto of the family has proven to be true, and now more than ever. So, after centuries of tradition, the new generation, Lisa, is still passionately dedicated to wine-growing. In late autumn of 2015, she created her own wine series, “OFFSPRING by Pfneisl”.

“OFFSPRING: the new generation’s new wine” stands for vegan and sustainable. These wines are made in accordance with the strictest ecological guidelines. This means unadorned wine of the highest quality, and it’s creating quite a stir. This is not least thanks to the striking and stylish design. Three years later, Lisa can look forward to the first major award, the “Newcomer of the Year Title (Golden Grape)”.

The Winery

With great attention to detail, both German and foreign grape varieties are hand-picked in the best and most well-known locations in the Mittelburgenland. These grapes are then turned into wine by the owner Gerhard Pfneisl himself and daughter Lisa, and matured, in the traditional fashion, either in steel vats or in oak barrels.

A large part of the sustainable certified 23 hectares of vineyards is located in Deutschkreutz, where the head office has been renovated in 2017. Since 2018 guests are welcome for tastings and purchase.

In addition to the Austrian Blaufränkisch and Zweigelt varieties, also international varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir and Shiraz can be grown, which is the great passion of the family. Moreover white wine varieties like Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc and Grüner Veltliner are part of the assortment. Various top red wine blends like Platinum, Pentagon, Hexenberg and Ego round off the offer.

The wines, under the brand “OFFSPRING by Pfneisl” form a wonderful addition to the well-established and award-winning range.

The Pfneisl family’s recipe for success is: “Tradition, Innovation, a love of wine, and a connection with nature”
