Gut Oggau is a project in the small town of Oggau in Burgenland, Austria which was started by Eduard and Stephanie Tscheppe back in 2007. Each bottle from Gut Oggau is an invitation, a ticket to walk a part of the way with them into the beauty of nature with all its energy, into balance, into harmony and into the enchanting unknown. Lively as their wines are, full of character and rich in personality, they have felt and described them like personalities since the beginning. Described like dear people who have grown close to their hearts. The faces on the labels are fictitious, they refer purely to the personal impression that each wine makes on them.

Slightly funky, nose, maybe a touch of Brett, but blew off after a while. Red cherry and almond knitted with fine fresh acidity. Smells like a Porto, super concentrated cherries and ripe fruit. Acidity goes well with the full body and the finish is long and pleasant. Unique one. Deep intense color, with a leather, mushroom and wet forest to the nose and a medium bodied wine with complex palate.

Fermentation takes place spontaneously with indigenous yeast, and ageing takes place in used oak barrels. This wine is neither fined nor filtered. Without added SO2.
