Rainer Wess 38 Items

Rainer Wess founded his own winery in 2003 after many years of diverse experience in the wine trade in both his native Austria and internationally. For example, he was the European sales manager for Mondavi and later the wine maker at a large Wachau winery. From the beginning, Wess’s goal was to produce Grüner Veltliner and Riesling wines that would not only be among the best of the Wachau Valley, but also express his very personal style and philosophy. Rainer Wess’ deep knowledge of the Wachu region and its wine growers enabled him to identify the finest grapes from choicest sites available for purchase at harvest in 2003 and resulted in the immediate success of his project. More sites and grape-sources were added in 2004. Rainer Wess aims to produce the purest, freshest and most elegant wines possible.
