This is a RED Gemischter Satz, a Viennese field blend of grapes co-planted and co-fermented together, and it is pure fun in a glass. Jutta Ambrositsch, one of Vienna's leading natural growers, makes it from a handful of rows planted in the 1980s: Zweigelt, Sankt Laurent, Blauburger, Merlot, and a few white grapes tossed in. It is whole-cluster, bottled unfined and unfiltered, and comes across bright, juicy, and lightly cloudy. Give the bottle a gentle shake, serve it with a chill, and don't take it too seriously.

More about Jutta Ambrositsch

Vienna and its residents have a long and intertwined history with its wine. It has the largest number of vineyards within its city limits of anywhere on earth, mostly to sate the thirsty Viennese. Winemakers here are known for their traditional, thirst-quenching, white field blends of Gemischter Satz, a perfect pairing for Schnitzel and Käsekrainer sausages. It's a style of wine often relegated to grocery store shelves, or sold out of a tap at any of the many Buschenschank (wine taverns) found around the city.

Jutta isn't from Vienna or a winemaking family, but found herself enamored with the juxtaposition of being a farmer in the big city. Her wines are a far cry from the gluggable styles produced by many of her neighbors. They are masterpieces of craft, allowing terroir to transcend grape variety to produce classic, often age-worthy bottles of serious juice.

She farms her four parcels organically and her winemaking would be considered "natural", but her clean, linear, complex results are a far cry from some of those who also don that moniker. These are wines unfamiliar to most and really worth exploring.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What Bowler Wine has to say about this wine:

From Marco: Rotburger, Sankt Laurent, Blauburger, Merlot and a few white vines, probably planted unintentionally, who knows, Vienna 30 years ago, early 80’s, wild times in a city that was not so wild at the time, at least on the surface. Back to the wine: forest soil and fruits…fermented gooseberries, a few scattered cranberries and a somewhat too inflated dark pink air mattress by the pond. Please shake before drinking, bottled with fine yeast directly from the tank.

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Grilled sausages, roast chicken, charcuterie, or a burger off the grill.

Tasting Profile

Bright cherry and red berry, light-bodied, high acidity, soft tannin, and a fresh, snappy finish. Serve slightly chilled.
