Gölles - Manufactory for fine brandy & fine vinegar

Riegersburg

The time is ripe for fine brandy and exquisite vinegar!

In the Gölles manufactory, at the foot of the historic Riegersburg, noble spirits and fine vinegars have been produced for over 40 years. For several generations, the Gölles family has cultivated their orchards in the Styrian hills. Only the best and ripest fruits, especially old, nearly forgotten fruit varieties, are used for vinegar and noble spirit production. For instance, Saubirnen, Kriecherl, Hauszwetschken, or Maschansker apples are cultivated at Gölles and traditionally double distilled.

Highlight
The highlight of Gölles production is the Apple Balsamic Vinegar, created by Alois Gölles in the 1980s. Inspired by his stay in Modena, he developed a balsamic vinegar from apples, which is now valued worldwide in gourmet gastronomy.

The Experience Tour
On the Experience Tour, visitors enter the interactive orchard, Austria's largest vinegar barrel cellar, the distillery, and the sensory tunnel. At the various stations, visitors learn interesting facts about the production and storage of the products. Discover everything about the origins of the family business, the people behind it, the handling of resources, and the value creation of the products. Of course, the vinegars and noble spirits can be extensively tasted.
