The Wittling Winery had to abandon its previous headquarters. The new location should be in a convenient location in the close proximity to the original site.
Just like before, the idea was to show the whole process of winemaking including a small vinyard. The building was moved directly to the main access road. From the position of the architects developed the design concept: vineyard and building merged into one form. The slope of the vineyard with the size 50 x 30 m increases from 3 m above ground level to a height of 10 m on the opposite side The ground floor provides space for sales, operational and storage areas of the wine shop. The exhibition rooms and a lecture hall are in a gallery floor along the road.
