Southern Styria has been compared to Tuscany for its rolling vine-covered hills, and Gross is one of its finest ambassadors. Based in the village of Ratsch on the Styrian Wine Route — one of Europe's most scenic winery drives — Michael Gross farms steep hillside vineyards producing Sauvignon Blanc, Morillon (Chardonnay), and Welschriesling of remarkable precision and freshness. The panoramic terrace at the winery overlooks vineyards stretching to the Slovenian border and is one of the most breathtaking spots to taste wine anywhere in Austria.
Guided tastings of Sauvignon Blanc, Morillon, and Welschriesling with vineyard and border views from the estate terrace.
Vineyard tours and cellar visits available.
