Weingut Elsnegg
On the Eckberg hillside in Südsteiermark, shifting air currents and patchwork soils define the cadence of the vines, and at Weingut Elsnegg that landscape is treated like a set of small parcels rather than a single field. Vineyard work is exacting: canopy management, low yields and hand harvesting aimed at keeping site character intact.
The arrival of Südsteiermark DAC sharpened the estate’s compass—regional wines, village bottlings and Ried wines are read as layers of origin. In the cellar, clarity comes from restraint: gentle pressing, patient fermentations (often with native yeasts when the fruit allows it), and élevage that polishes texture without masking it, from stainless steel to large oak and time on fine lees.
Behind the bottles stands a true family domain, rooted on the Eckberg and open to visitors with Styrian warmth. The result is a house style built on freshness, precision and a quiet confidence—an invitation to taste place, not performance.Weingut Elsnegg
