Profile of Ewald and Brigitte Tscheppe from Werlitsch:

🏠 From Styria, Austria
🍇 Make multi-layered wines with lots of energy
🍷 Almost always sold out
🥂 Only white grape varieties

Brigitte and Ewald Tscheppe from the Styrian Werlitsch winery produce great wines with little intervention. Only white grape varieties, cultivated with great care according to biodynamic standards, are grown on the cozy 9 hectares with sometimes dizzyingly steep slopes. In the cellar, Ewald trusts in the quality of his grapes, avoids major interventions during vinification and lets his wines age for at least two years in large oak barrels. Perhaps this is why they are so unagitated and deep - somehow like tranquillity itself. Our recommendation for a particularly cozy evening: a bottle of joy!

Southern Styria, Austria

Oh, you beautiful southern Styria! Multi-layered and varied soils full of marl, sand, slate and limestone are found here in the incredibly steep vineyards, which can hardly be worked with machines. What does this mean for the winemakers? Almost unconditional manual labor. With the Mediterranean temperatures, a droplet of sweat may run down your forehead. It's good to cool down a bit in the evening with a good glass of wine. The region is also often referred to as the Tuscany of Austria. Understandably so - beautiful nature, great wines, good food and friendly people, just like Werlitsch!
