Burgenland 2016

Die handgelesenen Trauben für diese Cuvée aus den burgenländischen Paradesorten Blaufränkisch und Zweigelt wuchsen in sonnigen Lagen im see- nahen Heideboden und auf der Parndorfer Platte.

2016 started out difficult with frost that lead to a substantial loss in yield. This was followed by a wet and cold summer with perpetual threats of fungal infections. On the bright side the water supply for the vines was ideal for the subsequent almost too hot September. All’s well that ends well.

Beautiful ruby ​​red; fruity, of cherries and berries, delicate spicy notes, delicate on the palate, lively finish.

As residents of Burgenland in the far east of Austria and as winemakers in Gols, we find ourselves in a multiply fortunate position. Because the Pannonian climate at Lake Neusiedl is not only beneficial and wonderful to live in, but also perfectly predestined for viticulture. The same applies to the diverse soils. This obliges us to produce wines of the highest quality. Starting with the 2013 vintage, all of our winery wines will be organic or biodynamic. In addition, Gols, where our family has been producing wine since 1684, is also a little away from the hustle and bustle of the city. That's why we have the peace and patience here to focus on what matters most. To produce distinctive, timeless, enduring wines from local varieties that will stay with you for a lifetime.
