Schödl | Schodl wines
The Schödl vineyard is a true family operation to make natural wine, run by siblings Mathias, Viktoria and Leonhard.
Before they took over the winery from their parents, it was used only to make wine for their family and the local community! Together, the three have converted the winery from chemical-free production to fully chemical-free & holistic, with lots of sheep roaming the vines and a ton of biodiversity. Located in Weinviertel, there are not many natural wine producers in the region so Schödl really stand out. We adore these wines which are fresh, vibrant and delicious!
Passion and focus on the land
It is clear the Schödl siblings are passionate about their production methods, and they aim to mix tradition with technology. In order to gain as much experience and knowledge as possible, they have traveled extensively to other vineyards outside of Austria - always to wineries fully committed to chemical-free farming. Biodiversity is important in their vineyards too, where many herbs and grasses grow in order for beneficial insects to thrive, and only natural compost is used to fertilize. They even have sheep to help with that.
Siblings with a heart and love for wine
Honest craftsmanship and minimal intervention are central to the family’s winemaking philosophy. The siblings believe in the natural flavor and taste of their grapes, intervening as little as possible to give rise to characterful individual wines that are not trimmed to “one” taste. They mainly focus production on white, rosé, and sparkling wines, although a few reds are produced as well. We particularly love their Rosé Supernova, which is amazingly fresh and summery!
