Elisabeth Pichler from the Wachau and Erich Krutzler from the Burgenland founded their own wine estate in the Wachau in 2006. Both husband and wife originated from famous wine-making families. Elisabeth's father F.X. Pichler is a well known Austrian Riesling and Grüner Veltliner producer, and Erich's family has a long history of Blaufränkisch wine making in Burgenland. Together, they craft wines of great soul and individuality, based on a respect for nature and sustainable viticultural practice. All this is a continuation of the path that Erich Krutzler set out on in the 1990s when he helped his family estate produce outstanding and characterful red wines in the Südburgenland. This is why a Burgenland Blaufränkisch finds its place in the range alongside Riesling and Grüner Veltliner.
