FAMILY
The Reck Pack!
My parents, Georg and me. Without my family and their support, I wouldn't be able to walk my path with such enthusiasm. I always like to toast to that with them. It goes without saying that we make a lot of music together. After all, we make WINES WITH SOUND!
Matthias
Favorite music: from Classic to Rock
Favourite wine:Ried Reinthal Weißburgunder con espressione
I am a passionate winemaker and musician. My focus: Pinot Blanc, Riesling and trumpet. I try to get the best out of all three. With virtuosity, sensitivity and love. Tradition, consistency, a mouldable future and experimentation are further prerequisites for me - for good music and good wine in equal measure.

Georg
Favorite music: brass music – from Bohemia to Los Angeles
Favourite wine:: Grüner Veltliner andantino
This is my brother Georg. He studied computer science at the Vienna University of Technology and now works as an IT consultant. Georg is also the conductor of the local music band in Ollersdorf.
Despite everything, he still finds the time to get involved with the winery. Among other things, I have him to thank for this wonderful website.
So thank you again for your support, Georg! I am very proud of you.
Gertraud
Favorite music: panpipes music
Favourite wine:: Muskateller brillante
Gertraud Reckendorfer, my mum. Her music plays in the garden and vineyard, where she feels at home. Together with my father, she has brought the winery up to scratch. In 1995, she gave up her job to devote herself fully to the business. The first accolades for our wines quickly followed, such as placements in the renowned #SalonÖsterreichWein. I love working with her in the vineyard and chatting about everything.
Karl
Favorite music: Viennese classic
Favourite wine:: Riesling delicato
This is my father Karl Reckendorfer. He and my mother Gertraud took over the winery in 1994 with just three hectares of vines as a mixed business. The professional musician first learnt viticulture at night school in the third cycle of education. He then converted the mixed operation into a part-time winery. From then on, the grapes were no longer sold, but made into wine at home.
In 2008, the parents built our wine cellar, which allows for modern production. They bought vineyards and planted new ones. In 2014, a stylised soundtrack was added to our labels for the first time, symbolising our family's love of music. With all this, my parents laid the foundation for today's winery.
