Austria remains a leader in organic viticulture, and we’ve been a proud part of it since 2013!<\/span><\/span>
<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For the first time, a quarter of Austrian vineyards are certified organic. Exactly a quarter (25.0%) of Austria’s vineyard area is certified organic.<\/span><\/span> <\/span>This is shown by the latest figures from the Ministry of Agriculture.<\/span><\/span> <\/span>This means Austria has reached a new record and defended its position as the global leader in organic viticulture.<\/span><\/span> A total of 10,524 hectares of vineyards in Austria are certified organic.<\/span><\/span> <\/span>This is exactly a quarter (25.0%) of the Austrian vineyard area \u2013 more than ever before.<\/span><\/span> <\/span>This also confirms Austria’s international pioneering role in organic viticulture.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

According to the report “The World of Organic Agriculture 2025” (FiBL & IFOAM), the country was already ranked first among all major wine-producing nations in 2023 with a 22.6% organic share \u2013 far ahead of Spain (17.8%), France (17.4%), and Italy (14.6%).<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

More effort and risk for winemakers. Organic viticulture requires less support for winemakers both in the vineyard and in the cellar.<\/span><\/span> <\/span>For example, readily soluble mineral fertilizers and synthetic pesticides are prohibited.<\/span><\/span> <\/span>The goal is to promote health, fertility, and biodiversity in the vineyard ecosystem.<\/span><\/span> <\/span>Organic viticulture requires winemakers to put in more, often manual, effort to maintain the vineyards and vines.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

At the same time, the risk of crop failure in adverse climatic conditions increases.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
