Gut Oggau Timotheus

Gut Oggau, a 13-hectare estate near Lake Neusiedl in Burgenland, Austria, is the brainchild of Eduard and Stephanie Tscheppe. Eduard, with a winemaking background in Styria, and Stephanie, whose family runs the two-Michelin-star restaurant Taubenkobel, revived the 17th-century Vineyard Wimmer in 2007. Abandoned for two decades, the vines were cleansed of chemicals, allowing the Tscheppes to embrace biodynamic practices from the start. Certified by Demeter, they nurture balance and purity, crafting wines with minimal intervention. Their vineyards teem with biodiversity—grazed by sheep, enriched by cover crops, and worked by horse to avoid soil compaction. With no added SO2, these wines pressed using a 200-year-old basket press, radiate the vitality of their environment. Each bottle tells a story of their meticulous dedication, showcasing the unparalleled quality of their vines and terroir.
