Gut Oggau Atanasius Rot 2022

The Wine: Gut Oggau Atanasius Rot 2022 Gut Oggau Atanasius Red Wine is a red natural wine made from a blend of Blaufrankisch and Zweigelt certified biodynamic grapes grown in the small hamlet of Oggau, Burgenland, Austria. Grapes are hand-harvested and destemmed. Fermentation takes place in used 500, and 1200-liter barrels, the juice spends about 3 weeks in contact with the skins. The wine goes through elevage in the same barrels for about 12 months, with no batonnage. The wine is bottled unfined, unfiltered, and with zero addition of sulfur. The Producer: Gut Oggau Gut Oggau is a project in the small town of Oggau in Burgenland, Austria, started by Eduard and Stephanie Tscheppe in 2007. Before starting the winery, Eduard made conventional wine with his father in Styria, and Stephanie’s family-owned and operated the Michelin starred restaurant Taubenkobel. They painstakingly restored the 17th-century winery that had been abandoned for 20 years, including its 200-year-old screw press.
