LA LOUPE Lech Zürs No. 3 - Winter

„Beim Zigarrenwettrauchen
sollte man nicht zu
viel vom Whiskey Sour
erwischen, sonst geht
die Geschicklichkeit
flöten!“
“During a cigar
smoking contest it’s
important not to have
too much Whiskey
Sour, it’ll have a bad
influence on your
coordination!”

everywhere you look – in every house, starting with small bed and
breakfasts and going all the way up to the most expensive hotels.
p.s. ⁄ In the past decades Lech has made a clear commitment to
quality and, contrast to other regions, has kept out of mass tourism’s
reach. We still have family run businesses here where the innkeeper
himself waits on his guests.
L.L. ⁄ Mr Strolz, the wine menu of your restaurant Fux contains
some 2,700 different wines. How do you keep track?
p.s. ⁄ The restaurant Fux has been open for 14 years now. The first
small wine menu had 12 whites and 14 reds on it but we used to have
20 different types of beer back then! After a wine tasting with friends
I found the topic so exciting I wanted to know more about it. I am
an autodidact who discovered his passion for wine in the course of
numerous tastings. By now I visit wine regions 4 to 6 times a year, I
visit the winemakers directly and make my choice there. That’s why I
know every single bottle in my cellar, they’re like my children!
L.L. ⁄ What kind of events will there be at Fux within the framework
of “LöffelWeise” this winter?
p.s. ⁄ Well, since my wine import is focused on Burgundy and
Champagne mostly, I am going to offer two Burgundy-events during
“LöffelWeise”, one Chardonnay and one pinot-Noir-event!
L.L. ⁄ And now a word from you, Mr prodinger: The Hotel Sandhof
allegedly offers the best, biggest Whiskey Sour far and wide. Why is
that the case?
p.s. ⁄ Well, there’s a reason for that, we had many friends sitting
at the bar and I was never fast enough behind the bar to keep their
glasses constantly full. So soon we got bigger glasses – and we still
have them today!
