This red natural Blaufränkisch comes from the calcareous Edelgrund vineyard, although you won't find the name of the location on the label - Claus Preisinger no longer registers his wine for classification as a "quality wine". Erdeluftgrasundreben represents the pure expression of grapes in their purest form - without sulfurization, without filtration, without modification. In the glass it has a dark ruby color, the aroma is rich and layered: pronounced blackberries with a touch of sweet cherries, black olives, violets, chestnuts and a subtle tone of graphite. The taste is fresh, slightly earthy in structure, naturally fruity, without any traces of wood. Fine grainy tannins, decent acidity and a mineral finish give the wine elegance and drinkability. Authentic, lively and absolutely TOP wine from Preisinger's workshop.

Weingut Claus Preisinger is located in the village of Gols on Lake Neusiedlersee in Burgenland. Claus originally started making wine with his father as a hobby, which grew into his life's work. His first vintage was in 2000. Since then, he has expanded his father's 3 hectares to 19 hectares. His vineyards are located on 64 plots and are largely planted with varieties typical of Burgenland - Zweigelt, Blaufränkisch and St. Laurent. Claus also works with the Grüner Veltliner and Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc) varieties.

Claus' priority is, has been and always will be to produce wine that is clean, balanced and distinctive for its terroir. His winemaking methods are guided more by instinct than by a set formula. That is why he is constantly experimenting and developing. Claus was the first Austrian winemaker to experiment with orange wines made in Georgian amphorae. Since 2014, Claus has been a member of the Pannobile association, which represents Burgenland winemakers who share the same natural vision.

Claus has been a holder of biodynamic certification since 2009. He intervenes minimally in the wine in the cellar. He adds very little sulfur to the wines - only lightly during bottling and only when necessary.

Claus was our guest in December 2019, when we celebrated the opening of our wine bar HokusPokus winebar&tapas.
