Sonnenmulde BioWeine - Austria

The estate has been owned by our family for many generations. The name Sonnenmulde originated from a vineyard situated in a hollow and the logo, the vine-crowned sun, has always been on the label of our wines. All wines are developed vegan and organic. We focus on fruity, clear and typical wines, which especially reflect the climate and the character of the soil.Since the middle of the 2000s we have been operating our winery as an organic farm. This means intensive work with the soil, the plants and all other living beings that populate a vineyard, as opposed to a simplistic, sole focus on the vines alone. Everything revolves around the formation of a diverse ecosystem, in place of a barren monoculture. Soil revitalisation through green manure and compost provides all of the nutrients that the vines need, entirely without chemicals or artificial fertilizers. Many useful insects find their ideal habitat in an organic vineyard, keeping pests in check and attracting larger animals like birds and mammals. A vital environment leads to healthy and strong vines that grow the very best grapes, full of sweetness, aroma and perfectly natural of course.

Native animals and plants, which are at home in our organic vineyards, also represent our wines on the label. Each symbol shares a special characteristic or a little story with the wine it stands for. And and every bottle of our wines helps to get the word out that there is much more than just vines in an organic vinyard.

Mimus polyglottos is a migratory bird that can be heard in the Gravançal vineyards, and it is with his brand that we want to give “wings” to our wines from the Douro to the World.

We invite you to taste wines from a region where, against extreme climatic adversities, one proves that high quality wines can be produced harmoniously, based on oenological team knowledge, adequate selection of grape varieties, combining sun exposure, vineyard altitudes and passionate work respecting the environment.
