The Red Wines - A Challenge
Traditionally, the family “pampers” the red wines (a third of total production). Willi Bründlmayer’s father grew Zweigelt, St. Laurent and Blauer Burgunder (Pinot Noir) grapes “because my wife likes to drink red wine in the evening”.
The best locations have proven to be the windprotected south-east slopes, the best-known being the Langenloiser Dechant and Ried Ladner. For Willi Bründlmayer “it’s a challenge to grow fine, wholesome red wines with outstanding personality in our climatic borderland”.
A red wine cuvée has been dedicated to each of the three children (from his marriage to his Parisian wife Edwige):
Cuvée Vincent (Cabernet Franc/Cabernet Sauvignon),
Cécile (Pinot Noir),
Anselm (St. Laurent)
