The manor cellar.
Today’s Lenz Moser estate cellar, which is mentioned in documents dating back to 1040, forms the heart of the winery.
Small French barrique barrels, large wooden barrels with a capacity of around 10,000 liters up to a gigantic 1,000-bucket barrel (capacity of 56,589 liters) adorn the Rohrendorf estate cellar. Lenz Moser has always attached great importance to wooden barrels. As early as 1978, it was one of the first Austrian wineries to begin storing red wine in 225-liter barrique barrels. Since then, the number of wooden barrels has been continuously increased.
The wine cellar, which was dug into the loess slope, has a special microclimate. The temperature here is a constant 15°C all year round, with rain providing the necessary humidity. These characteristics offer optimal conditions for the storage and maturation of absolute top wines.

Vintage wines in the bottle museum
The memory of the winery.
The Lenz Moser Bottle Museum is the winery’s well-guarded treasure – old wines dating back to 1949 are stored here.
In the Lenz Moser estate cellar, there are not only historic wooden barrels to marvel at, but also old wines from past decades. More than 100,000 old wines dating back to 1949 are stored in various small boxes in the historic bottle museum. These are regularly tasted to check their quality and determine their further storage potential. We can still offer wines from most vintages for sale today.
Selected old wines are currently available in the online store. If you are interested in specific vintages, please contact us: +43 2732 85541-2759 or club@lenzmoser.at
