Corte Pavone
Rainer built the wine estate in 1979. Since 1998, son Hayo has determined the fortunes of the wineries. Today, all 3 sons, Hayo, Franz Josef and Hannes, play a part in the LOACKER Wine Estates. They share their father’s pioneering spirit, commitment, and rebel heart. LOACKER wines have been grown sustainably for 40 years across all 3 estates. While this requires a demanding work process, it yields incredibly rewarding results for us and nature.
