Qualität & Leidenschaft
Unsere Weine
In jeden Wein von Zahel kommen nur ausgesuchte Trauben aus Wiens besten Lagen. Jeder Wein wird mit großer Sorgfalt gepflegt, geerntet, vinifiziert und ausgebaut. Egal ob Wiener Gemischter Satz, andere Weiß- und Rotweine, Sekt oder besondere Spezialitäten.
Die Identität
Leidenschaft vom Anfang bis zum Ende gedacht
„Wir produzieren trinkfreudige, elegante, mineralische Weine von den besten Lagen Wiens.“ Wein zu machen bedeutet für uns, etwas im Einklang mit der Natur und mit Respekt vor Handwerk und Tradition zu schaffen, Unberührtheit ins Glas zu bringen und den Schmetterling im Weingarten fliegen zu sehen. Unsere Leidenschaft für Wein und unser Wissen über die Trauben stecken wir nicht nur in den Wiener Gemischten Satz, sondern in jede einzelne Flasche.
The soul of the winery
The mixed set
Why mixed?
The mixed set itself has a long tradition - not only in Vienna. In the past, winegrowers often only had a single vineyard at their disposal. Planting different grape varieties had many advantages, then as now. The different characteristics of the grape varieties ensure a stable yield and make the vineyard less susceptible to bad weather or wine diseases and pests. As a result, more grape varieties flow into the wine and thus multiply its complexity. This composition gives the wine more acidity and therefore freshness.
Advantages of the Gemischter Satz
The mixed set
... is a very special white wine. It contains at least three different grape varieties, but they all come from the same vineyard. Not only were they planted next to each other, but they are also harvested and fermented together. The result is a wine that combines the advantages of the different grape varieties.
The methodology
Passion from start to finish
01 Viticulture
A vineyard needs a lot of care and feeling for the vines. We cultivate our vines according to the biodynamic guidelines of Demeter as well as the regenerative principles of the Regenerative Organic Alliance (ROA). We always rely heavily on manual work. We are also committed to a high level of biodiversity through special compost and species-rich planting in each row of vines. At the end of the rows, we cultivate fruit varieties and roses that promote our beneficial insects and also beautify the landscape.
However, we have always done without herbicides and pesticides. And that's a good thing. Many of the vines in our vineyards are already more than 40 years old. It is also home to our indigenous grape varieties such as Orangetraube, Neuburger, Rotgipfler and Zierfandler, which give our Wiener Gemischter Satz that certain something.

"For us, winemaking is much more than just making wine. We put our passion for wine and our knowledge of the grapes not only into the Wiener Gemischter Satz, but into every single bottle."
02 The reading
When the sun, soil and vine have done their work and the grapes are ripe, the grape harvest begins. And because we only harvest when the weather is at its best, this happens at the end of August at the earliest, but usually in September. We then harvest the grapes 100% by hand within a few weeks. Our quality standards require experienced, trained staff who pay particular attention to careful handling. Harvesting is a responsible task for us. We make sure that only the best grapes go into our wine right from the harvest.

04 The last step
Only when it is perfect does our wine go into the bottle. But only temporarily. Because it actually belongs in a glass. That's what we made it for. To toast, drink and enjoy. Cheers!
