Producer profile

Christina Netzl

Christina Netzl's journey in natural winemaking started in her childhood, working on her family's farm and vineyard at the tender age of 5. The family business, located in the Carnuntum winemaking region near Vienna and north of Neusiedler See, eventually focused exclusively on grape growing and winemaking, expanding to a 28-hectare operation. Christina's enology and wine management education in London broadened her understanding of global wine styles.

Returning to the family winery in 2007, Christina's passion for organic viticulture intensified, especially after becoming a mother. The transition to organic practices began in 2013, starting with soil treatments and eliminating herbicides, phasing out pesticides, implementing 100% organic vineyard management, and finally achieving organic production in the winery.

In 2018, they initiated the formal process for organic certification. Over the past decade at the winery, Christina has developed a deep appreciation for ancient winemaking techniques, leading to the launch of a natural line of wines. This range, representing a blend of tradition and organic principles, is a source of pride and an embodiment of her dedication to natural winemaking.
