Personality
The top red cuvée of the domaine, made in tiny quantities from their oldest vines, with awesome structure and aging potential.
When Bertholdi opens up and tells his stories, you never want him to stop. Every drop of his breath resonates in our senses as his voice caresses us with its gentle tone.
He talks about a life full of emotions, about his time in the vineyard and on the skins, about ancient wooden presses. And about the peace and quiet of the days he spent in the barrel, where he could relax and reflect on his journey so far.
He remains true to his roots, always connected to the earth, but still has vitality and a desire for new adventures. His infallible spirit is up to anything that comes his way. We think that’s the full taste of life.
Feel the pleasant warmth and comfort in his presence, enjoy his wisdom and humanity. Let yourself be inspired by the strength and confidence you feel within yourself and by the connection with nature, the sun and the soil.

An unmistakable nestor of the Gut family! Mechthild’s husband is her equal and a steadfast partner to his greatly loved spouse. A strong “Burgenländer”, who is extremely versatile, but always down to earth and at one with nature. Very much the beloved and wise grandfather to his grandchildren, he has much to tell and is full of energy and joie de vivre. He has made his way, knows all the tricks and in spite of advancing age, is still gaining in class.
