Wagram<br />
liner and Riesling. The remaining third of the<br />
vineyard area is dedicated to the production of<br />
red wine. The Wagram offers exceptional conditions<br />
for Grüner Veltliner due to the superb<br />
symbiosis of climate and soil. When seeking the<br />
core competency of this estate, one should examine<br />
its examples of this variety. Grüner Veltliner<br />
is produced as a light summer wine as well<br />
as in the form of sublime single-vineyard wines<br />
such as the “Ried Steinberg” and “Ried Schlossberg”.<br />
Among the red wines, the juicy Pinot<br />
Noir possesses an excellent reputation and the<br />
“Foggathal” blend counts among the best and<br />
most renowned red wines of Austria. Karl<br />
Fritsch is manager of the estate as well as the<br />
winemaker. He enjoys a very good reputation<br />
among his colleagues due to his innovative spirit<br />
and ability to implement a strategy. His sensitive<br />
hand makes it possible to create a versatile<br />
assortment of wines from the endless possibilities<br />
provided by nature. This is confirmed not<br />
only by the growing number of customers, but<br />
also the numerous accolades for his wines. Karl<br />
Fritsch places priority on the preservation of<br />
nature and its resources with the conversion to<br />
biodynamic viticulture in January of 2006. He<br />
sees it not as a duty, but as a privilege to work<br />
with nature. Karl Fritsch was accepted into the<br />
prestigious vintners’ association “Österreichische<br />
Traditionsweingüter” in 2007, which further<br />
highlights the importance of his role as a<br />
leader in the Wagram wine region.<br />
