Description
WINEMAKER: Claus Preisinger
VARIETAL: Riesling, Scheurebe, Furmint
REGION: Burgenland, AT
VITICULTURE: Certified Biodynamic
A wine that was in Claus' mind for a while and now has finally seen the light of life. Fruitloops is a blend of all of Claus' aromatic varieties from new plantings aka Riesling, Scheurebe and Furmint and shows the more serious, dare we say grown-up side of his collection. Its like drinking Chenin Blanc from the Loire with the spicy limestone rocks of Neusiedlersee. All short maceration on skins 3-5 days for texture. No added sulphites.
Claus Preisinger’s winery is nestled in the village of Gols by Lake Neusiedlersee in Burgenland. Claus first started making wine with this father as a hobby, but after working with Hans Nittnaus, a neighbouring winemaker for a few years, decided that wine was his true calling. In 2004 he was one of the founding members of the Pannobile group of winemakers, a group that uses respect for the land and terroir to preserve traditions in Burgenland. His first vintage was in 2000, and since then he has expanded his father’s 3 hectares to the 17 hectares of vines he cultivates today. His vineyard work is meticulous and he is deeply in touch with his land. He uses a mixture of techniques including homeopathic teas, compost from cattle and horses and works strictly from Steiner philosophies. His vines are spread across 58 parcels and are largely planted to indigenous varieties such as Zweigelt, Blaufränkisch and St. Laurent.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
