IN VINO<br />

veritas<br />

The fact that we at the “Post” not only focus on<br />

culinary arts, but also on pairing with exclusive<br />

wines is no longer a secret. On the contrary – 18<br />

times in a row the “Post” was presented by the<br />

renowned wine magazine “Wine Spectator” with<br />

an award for its outstanding wine list – that speaks<br />

40 years Sommelier Club<br />

It was a snowy day in January 1982 when the<br />

wine lovers Adi Werner of the Hospiz in St<br />

Christoph, Inge Jochum from the Lörunser<br />

in Zürs and Franz Moosbrugger from the<br />

“Post” in Lech took the momentous decision<br />

to found the first Austrian Sommelier Club.<br />

The love of fine and exquisite wines gave<br />

birth to this Association. Innkeepers and<br />

sommeliers are to put the wine list together<br />

jointly and ensure that only wines which are<br />

in good condition and maturity are served to<br />

the guests.<br />

for itself.<br />

The “Post” wine cellar, which incidentally<br />

contains around 14,000 bottles, is widely known<br />

and is above all among wine connoisseurs a<br />

treasure trove for one or the other sought-after<br />

rarity.<br />

Schloss Gobelsburg<br />

THE FAMILY WINE ESTATE<br />

Schloss Gobelsburg is the oldest wine estate in<br />

the Danube region of Kamptal and can look back<br />

on a documented winemaking history dating<br />

back to the 12 th century.<br />

Florian Moosbrugger has inherited this<br />

philosophy from his father and continues to<br />

uphold it today. All the wines are only placed<br />

on the menu after thorough tasting and a<br />

favourable judgement.<br />

A few years have passed since the foundation,<br />

and we are very proud that the “Post” has<br />

very active sommeliers with a wealth of<br />

experience. It is their express desire to<br />

advise you and support you in your choice.<br />

Our rarities and vintages have already been<br />

maturing for several years in the cellar, lying<br />

in optimal climatic conditions.<br />

Come and see for yourself at your next stay<br />

and taste our fine wines – we will be happy<br />

to advise you!<br />

“Did you know that…?”<br />

… in the summer of 2005 some bottles lost their<br />

labels in the floods? As a result, a wine raffle was<br />

held in the “Post” with a predetermined price.<br />

Only the cork revealed to the buyer the bargain<br />

he or she had made in the raffle.<br />

An exciting game!<br />

In 2021 Schloss Gobelsburg celebrated its 850 th<br />

anniversary.<br />

Cistercian monks who settled throughout Europe<br />

starting from Burgundy during the 12th century,<br />

received their first vineyards in 1171 and over the<br />

last 850 years they have had a lasting influence on<br />

viticulture in Austria. Since 1996 the winery has been<br />

run by the family Eva and Michael Moosbrugger.<br />

The primary goal is to preserve the viticultural<br />

heritage of Schloss Gobelsburg – with vineyards<br />

which are historically amongst the oldest in the<br />

region – to further develop them and pass them on<br />

to the next generation.<br />

In December 1996 the estate was admitted to the<br />

renowned Association of Traditional Austrian Wine<br />

Estates and in 2019 the US Wine and Spirits magazine<br />

entered it in the list of the Top 100 Wineries of the<br />

World.<br />
