About the manufacturer
Franz Hirtzberger
Franz Hirtzberger is one of the most renowned wineries in the Wachau, that legendary wine region on the Danube world-famous for its mineral-driven, precise White Wines. For generations, the estate has cultivated terraces with vines, some over 50 years old, in prime locations such as Honivogl, Steinporz, and Singerriedel – names you'll find on many of their bottles.
What distinguishes Hirtzberger is its unmistakable style: Grüner Veltliner and Riesling of extreme elegance and vibrancy, directly reflecting the slate, gneiss, and loess of their origin. The Wines are not opulent, but rather taut and dynamic – they show you what great Austrian White Wine can be. The winery works with a strong sense of tradition, respects the nature of its vineyards, and lets the grapes speak for themselves, rather than over-processing them.
With 27 products in our range, you have the opportunity to discover the full spectrum of this classic wine – from powerful to delicate, mineral interpretations. At Wine In Time, you'll find Hirtzberger Wines that will transport you directly to the steep slopes of the Wachau.

Honivogl
The Franz Hirtzberger Honivogl 2005 in the magnum bottle is an exceptional testament to the Wachau region and the Hirtzberger winery. The steep Honivogl vineyard is among the most prestigious terroirs in Spitz on the Danube, where primary rock soils lend the Grüner Veltliner its distinctive character. Franz Hirtzberger is considered one of the pioneers of modern Wachau winemaking, and this mature rarity proves why his Wines are appreciated worldwide. The magnum size has enhanced the wine's development and bestowed upon it additional complexity.
The 2005 Honivogl was classically aged in large wooden barrels, which gave it structure and longevity without masking the crystalline purity of the Grüner Veltliner. The long aging period transformed primary fruit into complex tertiary aromas – a process achieved only in great Wines.
On the nose, a captivating bouquet unfolds, revealing dried herbs, ripe pear, honeydew melon, and a distinctive flinty note. The palate showcases its full ripeness: a creamy texture, integrated acidity, notes of walnut and stone fruit, and that green, mineral signature that makes Honivogl Wines so unmistakable. The finish is long, saline, and impressively deep.
