Winery Bliemel

Winery

“He who can enjoy no longer drinks wine, but tastes secrets,” the Spanish artist Salvador Dali so aptly said.

We place great importance on a careful handling of the existing resources. That’s why we continue to care for our old vines instead of uprooting them. Many of our vines are still productive at nearly 50 years old. Our wine grows almost exclusively on weathered volcanic rock, shaped by the former volcanoes of the region. And so we try to bring the uniqueness of East Styria into the bottle. In five different vineyards over approximately three hectares, the grapes for our award-winning Pinot Blanc and Roesler Barrique, as well as the varieties Welschriesling, Yellow Muscat, Sauvignon blanc, Müller Thurgau, Blue Zweigelt, Blauburger, and Rathay grow.

Distillery

Since 2016, we have been processing the fruits from our own orchard in our distillery – such as apples, pears, cherries, apricots, kriecherl, plums, and pomace (press residues) – into fine Styrian quality brandies. We have already achieved some successes and have been awarded several times for our cherry brandy. We value the unadulterated fruity taste of a brandy, which we enhance through aging in glass balloons.
