2021 Cecilia

An impossibly satisfying Rose! Cecilia is a little bit different to your average pink. It's the the newest addition to the Gut Oggau family – a gemischter satz (field blend) of red and white varieties from a little plot that was brought back to life by Steffi and Edouard.

An impossibly satisfying Rose! Cecilia is a little bit different to your average pink. It's the the newest addition to the Gut Oggau family – a gemischter satz (field blend) of red and white varieties from a little plot that was brought back to life by Steffi and Edouard.

Gut Oggau came to life when Eduard and Stephanie Tscheppe took over an abandoned 17th century winery in the town of Oggau, Austria, and tirelessly restored it, including the 200 year old press that came with it.

Biodynamics was the next necessary step for the couple. Once they were able to vinify, perhaps it was the ghosts of the winery past, spirits that had hidden in the walls and the fruit, but each wine came alive with it’s own personality. They say that natural wine feels “alive”, but the feeling was so encapsulating, they had to name the visions that came to them.
