Making smashing wines in Rust, Burgenland. Organic. Small scale. Hands on.

A hawk sitting in a distant tree. In the Vogelsang vineyard which means “Birdsong” loosely translated. #photograpy #birds #nature
While even fog makes for some wonderful views and mystic surroundings i am quite happy that tomorrows forecast is a bit clearer for pruning. #fog #photography #winemaking #vigneron #viticulture
So approach for yesterdays tasting for the mw diploma students. Everything #Welschriesling and a fcking #Merlot - about the versatility and underratedness of a ubiquitous but disregarded Variety in #austria. (Typo with the RS on the Merlot - it’s just 1g Sugar not 300ish)
Quite very honored to host a group of master of wine students tomorrow in our winery. Definitely looking forward to the exchange. But … still not sure what way to structure the tasting … #wine #mastersofwine #excited #nervous

Not every day do I call for a New York Times writer to be reassigned.

But this story has been needed for a long time. She doesn't follow the facts.

I highlight two examples of her writing something completely different from what the research says.

The way the New York Times is reporting on alcohol and health is not just reckless – it isn't journalism. Read the latest wine news & features on wine-searcher

We're currently busy pruning our vines and occassionally i come across some plants that illustrate our shift away from "rough" towards "gentle" pruning techniques. This plant had a huge wound after being cut back using a saw to trim mature wood. Since ten years we stopped this method in favor of pruning respecting the sap flow aka #gentlepruning. The picture illustrates how the plant manages to vigorously grow around a massive wound and develop healthy wood. Lovely!

Luckily the weather changed today and it’s getting warmer. Anticipating this i took my decent camera to a small photo walk through our vineyards and have some more photos to share. #winter #photography #vines #landscape #frost
Magic mood - last days we had thick fog all day around with freezing temperatures. A frozen vine wonderland. #photography #nature #frost #vineyards
