Alexander Koppitsch Rét is a distinctive creation by Alexander and Maria Koppitsch, who transitioned from selling grapes to producing wine at their family's 5.5-hectare winery in Burgenland, starting in 2011. Situated in Neusiedl am See, near the shores of Neusidl Lake and the Leitha Mountains, the vineyards boast predominantly limestone soil. Following biodynamic principles inspired by Rudolf Steiner, the Koppitschs meticulously manage every aspect by hand. Rét, a Hungarian term meaning grassland or meadow, encapsulates the historic use of this land for grazing village livestock. The wine is a blend of 80% Rotburger (Zweigelt) and 20% St. Laurent, sourced from Hutweide and Prädium vineyard sites with gravelly soil atop the Wagram-Plateau. The grapes are naturally fermented on skins for six days, pressed, and aged on gross lees for seven months, resulting in an unfiltered, additive-free wine with no added sulfites. This meticulous process produces a unique, terroir-driven wine with a distinct sense of place.

Wieninger Wiener Trilogie is a testament to Vienna's winemaking excellence, sourced from the prestigious Bisamberg vineyards. The terroir, characterized by sandy loess over limestone, benefits from ample sunlight, steady winds, and optimal drainage, creating an exceptional site for red wine. This blend, composed of Zweigelt, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot, unfolds a symphony of flavors. Harvested at different times, each grape variety undergoes fermentation in large wooden casks or steel tanks, followed by maturation in barriques for around 20 months. The result is Wiener Trilogie, a harmonious and complex red wine reflecting Vienna's winemaking heritage.
