Neusiedel Am See, Burgenland
Alex Koppitsch is the third generation of wine producers in the family and in 2011 he decided, together with his wife Maria, to take over the reins of the company and its 6 hectares of vineyards in Neusiedel Am See, in Burgenland, in an enchanted valley just below the Leitha mountains , between the Alps and the Carpathians.
The couple is a fervent supporter of Sterinerian biodynamic practices. At the Koppitsch estate, chemistry is absolutely banned with the exception of homeopathic doses of sulfur dioxide before bottling. Here everything is manual, and done with passion.
The grapes grown are the red berries typical of the area such as Sankt Laurent and Zweigelt and the international Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc. The plants are based on sandy shale soils and depending on the conformation of the soil from which the grapes used for the wines come, Alex identifies 4 types:
FUN WINES – great drink, inspired by the composition of the soil (sandy, clayey, gravelly)
PERSPEKTIVE – more complex wines, more suitable for aging, inspired by the type of rock (schistose or limestone)
TOUCH – great richness, which tells us about the relationship between soil and taste of wine
AEON – the most complex, highest line, which tells us about the relationship between man and the territory
PRETTY [nʌts] – the character of the territory from which the wines are born, and its vibrations
