Vanja Mathier on history, home and sustainability

Five generations of family history – and a young woman who looks to the future with heart and vision: Vanja Mathier is part of the fifth generation of the family business and brings fresh impetus to the winery.

Even as a child, she roamed the cellars and salesrooms with her parents and grandmother. The familiar smells, the encounters with customers and the feeling of community shaped her early on. What began playfully back then is now a vocation: Vanja organizes events, helps design external locations and plays an operational role in the business.

For them, the company means one thing above all: home. A place full of memories – and at the same time a space to create new ones.

The topic of sustainability is particularly important to her. For Vanja, it is not a trend, but a responsibility towards nature, family and future generations. The business has always been closely connected to nature – and it is precisely this respectful interaction that she wants to continue.

With her attachment to history and her clear view of the future, Vanja Mathier is emblematic of the next generation: rooted in tradition and open to new ideas.
