High up in the hills of Leithagebirge in Burgenland, Christian Tschida defines his unique, visionary style: delicate wines characterized by the sheer freshness of minerals derived from his steep, cool vineyards.
Nestled right below the cooling forest, with a 180° exposure to the sun, overlooking mirror-like Lake Neusiedl, limestone, schist, and quartz play the lead roles in the fascinating transformation of incredible terroir into something drinkable: multidimensional grape juice that shines in the glass with the same purity it possesses on the vine.
Christian Tschida believes that a fantastic vineyard treated well develops an authentic balance of aromas, fruit, acidity and structure that does not require further optimization. The complex microcosmos of his high-density vineyards brings Christian's unique vision of a vertical wine to life, uniting the seemingly contradictory: moderate alcohol, lightness and freshness with intense aromatics, high natural concentration and lavish inner tension and strength. That's what Christian's dreams are made of.

Riesling
White wine
Single vineyard, single barrel.
The limestone soil that gradually transforms into schist on the upper levels of the hill is worked by horse, giving the high density planting of 9000 vines the sensitive treatment it deserves for resulting in an energetic wine.
