Winerie

For almost a century, the grapes from the vineyards were delivered to the Neumarkt cooperative, of which the family was a founding member, and which was once housed in the winery's old cellar. Since 2015, Anton Felix has been making wines as his own cellar master under his own family name - independently of the cooperative, which has since been merged into Tramin.

Vintage report

The 2023 vintage challenged us with climatic extremes: a dry spring, snow in May in our highest vineyards at 1,050 meters (approx. 3,445 feet), and a humid summer marked by intense rainfall, heatwaves, and high disease pressure. Meticulous biodynamic farming and selective hand-harvesting were crucial to preserve quality.
