MARKOWITSCH<br />

The Markowitsch winery secured its<br />

place among the Austrian wine elite<br />

with dizzying speed. This achievement<br />

was made possible by striving for quality<br />

without compromise - efforts that were acknowledged<br />

with the “Falstaff Vintner of the<br />

Year <strong>19</strong>99”. Approximately 39 hectares of<br />

vineyards are planted with 75 % red wine varieties<br />

and 25 % white. Zweigelt, Pinot Noir,<br />

Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon dominate the<br />

red wines and Grüner Veltliner, Chardonnay<br />

and Sauvignon Blanc the whites. To fulfil the<br />

international demand for top quality wines,<br />

fruit from another 40 vineyard hectares cultivated<br />

according to the strictest quality standards<br />

is purchased from contracted growers.<br />

Family Markowitsch built a 27,000 square<br />

foot winery facility in 2001 that meets their<br />

growing needs and the challenges facing modern<br />

quality vinification. This has made it possible<br />

to vinify unique, inimitable wines that reflect<br />

the Carnuntum terroir. Markowitsch<br />

focuses on autochthon grape varieties like<br />

Zweigelt, but also includes international varieties<br />

like Pinot Noir in his repertoire, which<br />

reflect his global outlook. Gerhard Markowitsch<br />

won the prestigious “Erste Bank Trophy<br />

2007”. The “Rosenberg” 2010 won the overall<br />

second place in the prestigious Falstaff Red<br />

<strong>Wine</strong> Premier. Gerhard Markowitsch won the<br />

“Erste Bank Reserve Trophy” once again with<br />

his “M1” from the 2012 vintage and in November<br />

2017 he achieved 2nd place from Falstaff<br />

for his Cuvée Rosenberg.<br />
