Leo Hillinger is a visionary entrepreneur and winegrower whose passion for viticulture has earned him international recognition. His estate, which today comprises an impressive 100 hectares of vineyards, is renowned not only in Austria but worldwide for its excellent wines. These wines are exported to over 20 countries around the world, underlining the global presence and popularity of the Hillinger brand. Hillinger’s focus on sustainable viticultural practices and organic production plays a key role in ensuring that his wines impress with their exceptional quality and purity.

Following years of training in Europe and California, Hillinger purchased 12 hectares of vineyards, thereby laying the foundations for his successful winery in Jois, which opened in 2004. The business has expanded to include several wine shops and bars across Austria and a long-standing business relationship with the Constantia Glen winery in South Africa. In 2012, Hillinger was named ‘Entrepreneur of the Year’ by Ernst & Young, underlining his outstanding role in the wine industry.

Hillinger Hill Angel White is made from 100 per cent Sauvignon Blanc grapes. After pressing, the wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 16°C and then aged on its fine lees for two months. These meticulous steps give the wine its characteristic freshness and texture. With an ageing potential of two years, the wine is traditionally sealed with a natural cork.
