This year Christof Höpler celebrates his 20th vintage having taken over from his father Jöst. Christof farms 50 hectares of vineyard in the Leithaberg hills on the shore of Lake Neusiedl in Burgenland in the east of Austria. The region lies on the edge of the Pannonian plain close to the border with Hungary. The continental climate with sunny summers and the shallow Neusiedlersee Lake make for an ideal location to produce a range of white, red and dessert wines.
