From this winery
We are now in the third generation with our family winery. This might not seem to be very long, yet it is long enough to shape a winery with idealism, innovation and investment to place it amongst the leading estates in the region. Our story begins in the 1960s with Franz and Barbara Leth, followed by sons Franz and Erich into the 1980s and 1990s. Franz Junior is now at the helm of the wine estate. We are all dedicated winemakers with our passion.
