On the hill between Tillysburg Castle and St. Florian Abbey, the vines are already empty. The harvest took place about a month ago and the wine press at the Gustergut in Weilling in Sankt Florian is also running at full speed. The company is known for its must and juices; the orchards extend over two and a half hectares. The area on which wine grows is now just as large: the range includes Sauvignon Blanc, Muscat, Donauriesling and Pinot Gris.
The fruit processing company and farm shop are run by the sisters Irene Wurm and Barbara Wallisch. Her father started viticulture as an experiment in 2011, and 7,000 liters of wine are now produced annually.
