THIS IS A ROSÉ PETILLANT NATUREL, PRODUCED Á LA METHOD ANCESTRAL AND IS SUPPOSED TO MAKE YOU HAPPY. The composition of this produce depended on various conditions: ripeness of each red variety, speed of fermentation, available space in winery for manual bottling, the weather – we bottle outside. We do neither have temperature control nor air condition to control or slow down the fermentation process. And of course, we do not add sugar to time bottling. Whenever fermentation is at the right point – we need to start bottling. This means we need to be ready for PRETTY [nʌts] 24/7. But we love our PRETTY [nʌts] so much – it is worth every tense moment we share.
In 2011, Alex and Maria Koppitsch took control of the families 6 hectares of vines in Burgenland, a short 40-minute drive from the Austrian capital, Vienna. The vineyards are all located around the village of Neusiedl am See and its lake. The estate was converted to Biodynamic farming prior (2007) whilst Alex was working alongside Gerhard Pittnauer in the neighbouring village of Gols. The soils range from sand through to loam, limestone and schist, and on the Wagram-ridge (in the northeast) alluvial—with large gravel and river stones, from the ancient Danube River. Until 1921 Burgenland was a German speaking part of the Hungarian monarchy. As homage to this history of Hungarian culture, several of the wines have Hungarian names including Homok which means sand.

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.
