Knowing that to artificially alter a product as natural as wine would be sin, our philosophy has always been to not intervene too much with the grapes and the ripening process. To simplify and optimize the workflow in our winery we built a brand new building in 2001, where the state of the art infrastructure and modern technologies guarantee careful processing of the grapes.

A long time ago our favorite and most loved successful wine variety the “Blaufrankisch” made “Mittelburgenland” its home showing extraordinary harmony with climate and soil. Comprising 50% of our production even today ‘Blaufrankisch’ is still our most important wine.

Josef and Rosina Poeltl

Josef Poeltl together with his wife Rosina started producing wine, laying the foundation for today’s winery.

It wasn’t long before his extraordinary talent and understanding for wine making was discovered and the wines of Josef Poeltl became a brand.  The early 70ies and 80ies saw our wines established within the top rankings amongst Austria’s red wine producers.

Marianne Poeltl and Ludwig Bauer

Daughter of Josef and Rosina Poeltl , Marianne married Ludwig Bauer,  who also comes from a wine making family. In 1990 Marianne and Ludwig took over the winery and dedicated themselves to ensure complete quality optimization
