Vegan friendly.

Sustainably certified by agroVet, Funkstille also produce their own fertiliser. They produce their own seeds to sow cover crops in the vineyards and use straw from the fields in the young vineyards to protect the vines from draught stress. Great care and attention is taken with canopy management in order to balance the leaf density of the vines and ensure good air-flow and healthy grapes, which are then harvested early in the morning from 15 + year old trellis grown vines in Weinviertel, within the Niederösterreich region, which are sited on loess, clay, granite mix soils and where the climate is cool continental. Vineyards are sited at approximately 230 to 300m above sea level and are mostly orientated South, South-East and South-West, on terraces with an incline of between 10 and 40 degrees.
