Wine as an investment in the words of our founders:

As colleagues working in the banking sector we experienced a Mortgage Crisis in 2008 and 2009 when their clients lost their savings that they had invested in funds. The losses climbed to 70% and money market funds also collapsed. Many companies went bankrupt and businesses closed. The crisis has affected many areas of business, with the exception of viticulture. Thanks to their banking experience and knowedge, we also had a good overview of how the individual wineries had endured, because we had access to statistics and numbers. Many of our clients were winemakers from Moravia. Wineries in the Czech Republic and Slovakia are all so succesfull because of the fact, that only about 50% of the consumption of wine for each country is produced locally, other wines must be imported from abroad. Thanks to their common love of wine, wineries and vineyards were a clear choice. We wanted a safe investment for the general public that is real and tangible, such as viticulture (real estate, wine technology, wine, vineyards, land). We wanted to be transparent and not hide anything. Investors become shareholders – that is, co-owners of the company and their rights arising from holding shares are not limited in any way!
From the vision, we managed to start a well-functioning and constantly evolving winery with the latest technologies. At a time of coronavirus crisis, which the world has been facing since 2020, we can see that our choice to develop viticulture was the right one. Not only are we succeeding in meeting the set goals, but interest in the Habsburg Winery is growing even during this new crisis, not only in Slovakia but also abroad. We currently supply wines to many countries, whether the Czech Republic or Western European countries such as Denmark, Belgium or the Netherlands. Our immediate ambition is to expand our sales to ten export destinations.”
