Allen, Wade and their families were passionate about their sport, their food and their wine, and wanted a wine that expressed the history, beauty, art, style and excitement of hunting.
The winery is named after a magnificent stag taken in 1898 by Emperor Franz Joseph, the great-great-grandfather of Archduke Istvan von Hapsburg und Lothringen, who shares the same passion for hunting and nature that drives the creation of these wines, whose intention is to be worthy of being enjoyed as a complement of the game.

When my great grandfather took the glorious stag portrayed on this label, he celebrated with a magnificent banquet with fine wines. I'm confident that you will love this wine as a complement to the game you, your family and friends enjoy.

Thanks to the dedication and craft of our talented professionals, we can get the most valuable and rich grapes from our vineyards with the full expression of the terroir where they are cultivated. This responsibility lies in our agronomists who by their experience and expertise can materialize the main resource needed for making great wines.
We are a sustainable winery, where we continuously work to meet the needs of the present without compromising the possibilities of future generations. Sustainability and care for the environment are concepts that guide all our work.
We are committed to every decision we make in an effort to maintain the quality of our wines and take care of both those working with us and the earth.
After carefully considering different land characteristics, we selected our parcels to reveal the most authentic expression of each grape variety.
Each parcel is segmented in sub-blocks so as to precisely consider the slightest variations, adapt and improve our viticultural practices. We are therefore able to achieve the best quality of each “micro-terroir”, optimizing fruit expression and wine precision.
