Nikolaihof Wines

Among the oldest wine estates in Austria, Nikolaihof traces its history to the Roman era and has been producing wine in the Wachau for centuries. Based in Mautern, opposite Krems on the south bank of the Danube, the estate has played a pioneering role in biodynamic viticulture, farming its vineyards according to biodynamic principles since the early 1970s. Riesling and Grüner Veltliner form the backbone of production, sourced from some of the Wachau’s most historic vineyard sites.

Nikolaihof is renowned for its patient approach to winemaking and maturation, with many wines spending extended periods ageing in large old oak casks before release. The resulting wines are distinguished by their purity, longevity, textural depth, and unmistakable connection to the loess, gneiss, and primary rock soils that define the Wachau.
