| Geschichte |
For over 25 years, the Niedermayr family has been running the farm Hof Gandberg, following not only strictly organic principles but also their intuition. At Hof Gandberg, we trust in the elemental forces and let nature drive the process. In 1993 the first wine was produced on the farm, and very soon we decided to take an alternative approach, and to make wine from high-quality fungus-resistant grapes. |
