The history of the Helenental Kellerei reaches all the way back to 1942, when the Retz-Röschitz winegrowers’ cooperative was founded in the north-western wine district. This cooperative quickly became known for the unique quality of its wines. When the Austrian State treaty was signed in 1955, the Retz-Röschitz wine cooperative’s Blauer Portugieser was served at the state banquet. The successful collaboration between the region’s winegrowers continues to be a strong influence on the Helenental Kellerei’s philosophy to this day.
