Nehrer
On the southeast slopes of the Leithagebirge, in St. Georgen near Eisenstadt, Nehrer bottles the unmistakable signature of Leithaberg. The family estate shifted to full-time winegrowing in 1962; today Johannes Nehrer leads the third generation, farming around 20 hectares organically and aiming for wines that reflect origin without compromise.Leithakalk and slate-rich pockets shape Chardonnay, Grüner Veltliner and Blaufränkisch, while Pannonian warmth is tempered by cool forest winds and the moderating influence of Lake Neusiedl. Local history runs deep: sites such as Hummelbühel, Hochberg and Krainer were recorded as early as 1570, and a roughly 500‑year‑old vaulted cellar still serves as a quiet aging room. In the cellar the motto is “as little as possible, as much as necessary”—patient maturation, frequent use of wood, precision, and all wines kept vegan.
