Description
Do you prefer wines from small producers? Then this is the tour for you. We will visit wineries in the Niederösterreich (Lower Austria) region which you don't typically find on the supermarket shelf.
As a vineyard owner, winemaker, and a student of viticulture I can offer you my unique experience and education. I will be able to show you up close and with hands-on experience what it takes to make wine from the soil to the bottling process.
In addition, I am very close with the wine-making community which affords me the opportunity to create curated experiences for my guests where they can meet with vignerons who are making wine naturally.
We can begin the tour based on your availability. So tell me when you would like to start and I will do my best to accommodate.
After 25 years in corporate communications I’ve packed away my keyboard and suit for pruning shears and overalls to launch my own winery (in English: Chapter Two) as I start the second chapter of my career.
In September 2021 I went back to school to start a three-year degree in viticulture and wine business. And to put theory to practice, and to keep things interesting, I purchased a small Austrian vineyard where I am growing white grape varietals: Chenin Blanc, Roussanne and Sémillon — my premier vintage will be bottled in late 2024.
