welcome
with us at the winery markus IRO
with our 94,510 vines on around 24 hectares of vineyards, we are a winery of a manageable size. and that is exactly what makes us special: because it gives me as a winemaker the opportunity to let inspiration take effect, to give the wine exactly the time it needs, to try out exactly those things that are interesting and promising and thus to achieve exactly the quality, intensity and independence that I want to guarantee in the long term - and that you know from us.
come and visit us and experience us personally. ingrid & i are looking forward to your visit!

falstaff: 2 winners + 2nd place
what an evening!
on monday, 27.11.2023, the falstaff red wine gala took place at the vienna hofburg and markus' wines were once again convincing.
2x varietal winner with pinot noir ried hochreit 2021 and cabernet franc reserve 2021 (varietal diversity)
2nd place with st. laurent ried herrschaftswald 2021
we are overwhelmed and grateful for these awards!
want to go to spielerei?
we have something new for the hot summer days
markus has tried something new again! and we? we can look forward to his latest spielerei to look forward to.
markus has reinterpreted the zweigelt variety, similar to the beaujolais style and voilà: the wine presents itself as a pleasantly fruity red wine - perfect for the hot summer. it has a berry taste, mild acidity and tastes best at 8°c, straight from the fridge.
11% alc., 4.8‰ sre.
come and try it! viens essayer!

news from the IRO
newsletter
our project for the conversion and extension of a new wine storage hall and a new press house for the processing and marketing of wine was funded by the federal ministry of agriculture, forestry, regions and water management, the province of burgenland and the european union. this investment will enable us to optimize the processes during grape processing and improve quality standards in production and processing. cheers to many more good vintages!
blah blah blah? definitely not, I promise!
we spend much more time in the vineyard, the cellar or at tastings and presentations than at the keyboard.
but every now and then we have something interesting to report. and if you would like to hear about it, simply sign up for our newsletter now:
