Weinbauerin Heidi Schrock   Neusiedlersee-Huggeland, Austria    
     
 
  Named "Austria's Wine-Grower of the Year" in 2003 by renowned wine magazine Falstaff, Heidi Schrock is the coolest female winemaker in Austria.  Heidi has gathered experience from places like SOuth Africa & Germany and brought it all back to her hometown of Rust.  She took over the winery from her parents 20 years ago and has since spend much of her time reviving traditional wines of her Austro-Hungarian forefathers.  The family motto states that tradition should be honored but also mixed with progress; for it means keeping alive the fire, not adoring the ashes.
