Notes on the Producer

Weingut Renner & Rennersistas is now in the hands of the fourth generation of the Renner family - siblings Stefanie, Susanne, and Georg. Although each initially pursued different career paths, all three eventually felt a strong pull back to their roots. Stefanie and Susanne returned first, launching the “Rennersistas” label, with Georg joining soon after. Today, Stefanie and Georg are the primary hands behind the winery. They are biodynamically farming their family’s 13 hectares of vineyards in Gols, where chickens and sheep roam free. In the cellar, they take a minimalist approach, using a gentle hand and avoiding unnecessary additions.
