The gothic castle is situated on a gentle hillside in the heart of an estate of outstanding natural beauty. Weingut Schloss Englar winery is also a hotel and B&B.

The current owners ancestors chose this place: the high quality soils and the favorable position provide the prerequisites for a high-quality viticulture and a wonderful estate. The gently exposed areas to the east and to the south at the foot of the mountains lie between 450 and 550m above sea level.

The hillside location permits strong temperature fluctuations between day and night; this, together with the soil structure of lime gravel and porphyry weathering soil provide the perfect conditions for high-quality viticulture. The 13 hectare estate is located directly around the castle with 7 hectares of vineyards.

Wine has been cultivated here by the counts Khuen-Belasi since 1640. Today, the company is run by Johannes and Maria Khuen-Belasi. Until 1930, the estate had its own winery, then it acted as a supplier of a significant local cooperative. In the year 2012 was the decision to reinstate the winery and in 2014 the first vintage of the Englar wine was bottled. Englar wines are made exclusively with grapes from these very vineyards and are processed and bottled directly on the estate.
