Wine Description
In the red edition of MO the Austrian
classic Zweigelt is in the foreground: it
delivers cherry fruit, lively acidity and
should be enjoyed slightly cooled. A great
friend and companion! Sometimes I add a
dash of white wine to it, why not! Pure,
honest wine drinking!
Winery
I’m Martin Obenaus from Glaubendorf . “Unchained” is my credo in all aspects. Farmed biodynamically, my vineyards shall once again turn into an ecosystem in which interventions become less and less necessary. I protect, support, let nature take its course, I unchain it. Hunting shapes the environment in a similar way as winegrowing. It might seem unusual to strive for a development in which the hunter becomes dispensable and the nature is unchained. But so does my will to return to winegrowing the way our ancestors used to do it – the low intervention way. I have taken this path which will be a never-ending one. The ecosystem changes every year but so do we.
