Leo Alzinger Jr.’s path to winemaking began when he was very young, watching his mother and father in the vineyards and cellars of the family winery. “There were no employees at this time; it was just them. I loved this from the beginning, being outside, working in nature”. His interest deepened as he grew older and he attended school for viticul¬ture at Klosterneuburg. During his studies he worked at several Austrian wineries including Malat and Jamek, in the Wachau.
“It is not just soil that makes terroir, it is exposure, and the climate and many other factors that make a vineyard’s personality,”
