Gut Oggau, based in the tiny village of Oggau in Burgenland, Austria, has become an icon of biodynamic farming and expressive natural wines. The family estate works old vines near Lake Neusiedl, using spontaneous fermentation, no fining, no filtering and only a touch of sulphur. Their range is famously presented as a family of characters – each wine with its own personality. This is their youthful, free-spirited rosé, made mainly from blaufränkisch and zweigelt.
Winifred Rosé 2023 (Gut Oggau)
It gleams pale ruby in the glass, close to a light red. The nose shows wild strawberries, sour cherries, citrus zest and rhubarb. On the palate it’s bright, juicy and energetic, with a refreshing crunch.
