WELCOME TO OUR WINERY.

A little Sausal.
A little of us.

Some places are best understood with a glass of wine in your hand.

For us, it is the steep terraces of Kitzeck, the view across the hills of Southern Styria and the people working here together. As a family, we combine winegrowing with hospitality – in our vineyards, our wine bar and our guest rooms.

OUR WINES

Slate in the soil.
Character in the glass.

Our wines tell the story of Sausal’s steep vineyards: slate soils, careful work among the vines and the time we give the wines in our cellar.

OUR SIGNATURE VARIETY

Riesling from the Sausal.

Riesling has a special place at our winery. It thrives on the lean slate soils of Ried Trebien. Freshness, depth and the mineral character of its origins are at the heart of these wines.

VARIETAL CHARACTER, ROOTED IN PLACE

Sauvignon Blanc.

An important part of our winery. Ried Pfarrweingarten is particularly close to our hearts: an airy vineyard shaped by red slate. Here, the wines develop a distinctive expression.

VERSATILE AT THE TABLE

Pinot Blanc & Pinot Gris.

Our Pinot varieties also grow on the terraces around Kitzeck. In the cellar, we give them time to develop their structure and the character of their vineyards.

A TASTE OF STYRIAN JOIE DE VIVRE

Gelber Muskateller.

For us, Gelber Muskateller belongs to Southern Styria’s wine country. In our range, its aromatic character meets the freshness and sense of place of our terraced vineyards.

OUR ORIGINS

The hillside leads.
We listen.

Steep terraces, slate and a great deal of work by hand shape our winegrowing. Each vineyard has its own character. We want to preserve it all the way to the glass.

THE FAMILY BEHIND THE WINE

This is where we work.
This is our home.

Weingut Albert – we are the Cramer family.

Leopold looks after the vineyards and the cellar. Christian cooks for our guests. Margarete takes care of the rooms and service, and Astrid looks after social media and the website. Each of us brings something different. Together, we make this place what it is.

The winery’s story reaches back to 1848. Today, we continue it in our own way: with respect for nature, work by hand and the pleasure of sharing our wines and our home with you.
