There are many good "Dolle wines", only from winemaking legend Peter Dolle from Straß. The old ancestral home of the Dolle winery is located in the Lower Austrian municipality of Straß in the Kamptal wine-growing region, 60 kilometres west of Vienna. On a vineyard area of 35 hectares, winemaker Peter Dolle senior vinifies the white wine varieties Riesling, Grüner Veltliner, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc and Chardonnay, as well as the red wine varieties Zweigelt, St. Laurent, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Pinot Noir.
With white wine vines up to 80 years old on the famous Zöbinger Heiligenstein and on the adjacent Straßer Gaisberg, the Dolle winery owns the most exclusive first sites, where especially the Grüner Veltliner and Rieslings develop year after year to remarkable quality and finesse.
Peter Dolle's experience is impressively reflected in the highest wine quality, awarded hundreds of prizes and named Austrian "Winemaker of the Year" in 1991. With his young team, his son-in-law and head cellarer Dariusz Srodulski and several other important young employees, the winery is strategically very well positioned for the future.
Visitors and interested parties are always welcome at the Dolle Winery; be it for a tasting of current wines or from the house's vinotheque, which dates back to 1962, for a cellar tour with Peter Dolle himself, or for a "Dolle Jause" in the winery's own restaurant or in its beautiful courtyard.
