New escalation level in the dispute over the South Styrian Wine Route, which was badly damaged last year: Since the state cannot reach an agreement with the affected winemaker on compensation, the only option is to go to court. The other side fires back sharply. It’s a lot of money.
The origins of the conflict go back to 2019: At that time, the deforestation on the Graßnitzberg caused a stir in the region. Not everyone was happy that the famous South Styrian winemaker Manfred Tement was allowed to build a new vineyard on a steep terrain. From the beginning, it was mainly older residents who expressed their concerns, because they felt that the forest in this area had an important protective function.
