Schiefer | Eisenberg

I decided in 1990 to devote myself entirely to my passion for wine as a winemaker. After attending the wine academy in Rust, I founded my own winery in Welgersdorf in southern Burgenland. In order to make the kind of wines that already existed in our region, but in my opinion had to be much more independent. as independent as the terroir on which they grow: the calcareous Königsberg, the “opal” Tschaterberg and of course the (nomen est omen) iron and slate-rich Eisenberg.

Uwe Schiefer 2022 Schiefer Weisser Schiefer

A classic white wine of Burgenland made from 100% Welschriesling, grown primarily on slate and quartz. This Welschriesling, fermented and aged in large wooden barrels, impresses with its complex aromas. From green tea to ripe stone fruit and lots of minerals on the palate. The wine is very powerful and has a great structure: very balanced, very enjoyable to drink, great length. That's how Welschriesling can taste.
