Why do we love it?

Simple, well-made, very balanced, and delicious! Naked Red - Weingut Heinrich, is the tastiest way to start drinking biodynamic red wines. If you were a little afraid of them until now, we assure you that this will completely change your mind and also at such a price it is not to be missed.

Gernot and Heike Heinrich 1985 decided to dedicate themselves to the production of quality and representative wines of the region and took over the Gernot family winery in 1985. With a focus on innovation and absolute respect for nature and the planet, in 2006 they turned exclusively to biodynamic cultivation, because they believed in the peaceful symbiosis of the vines, with the complex but perfectly healthy ecosystem in which they live. The vineyards are located on both sides of Lake Neusiedl, with a diversity of soil composition. Today they produce natural wines with the least possible intervention, from the vine to the bottling.

For Naked Red - Weingut Heinrich the grapes are harvested from both sides of the lake. The Austrian native variety Zweigelt and the spicy Blaufränkisch combined very harmoniously with the intensely floral variety St. Laurent. Their stay for 12 months in an oak barrel gave a soft, very juicy, and intensely fruity natural red wine.

How to drink it? Now that the weather is cooling, it is the ideal wine for the barbeque. If you put it in the fridge for half an hour, you will thank us...
