About the winery

Pfneiszl Estate operates in the heart of the Sopron wine region, where sisters Birgit and Katrin have been tending their family vineyards since 2006. After taking over from their parents, they converted to organic farming in 2006 at Birgit's initiative, with the first organic vintage born in 2009. On thirteen hectares, they cultivate nine grape varieties, supported by family dedication and one permanent employee.

Birgit, a trained viticulturist and winemaker, traveled the world from age sixteen, working in renowned wine regions from California to Australia and New Zealand, before finding her place back home in Sopron. Katrin, born in Austria and educated in Hungary as an economist, became a winemaker with a creative approach to describing wines. A third generation, Izabella, is growing up among the vines.

The winery's philosophy works in harmony: partnering with nature through biological methods, and rewarding each vintage with its own story. Balancing modern technology with tradition, they craft wines that embody the naturalness at the heart of their vision.
