Today, Hannes and Olympia biodynamically farm 4 hectares of Lemberger, Pinot Noir and Riesling on steep, terraced vineyards of pure limestone. All work in the vineyards and cellar is done by hand. Winemaking is minimalist: native yeast fermentation, aging in old barrels, no fining or filtration and small additions of sulfur prior to bottling.
