Flirty, light, with no small amount of spice: that’s the bad boy of the Gut Oggau family for you. Atanasius isn’t afraid to be himself: that is, a soft yet zippy blend of Zweigelt and Blaufrankisch from 35-year-old vines. These are macerated on their skins for three weeks in old barrels before being aged in there for another 12 months. But there’s no hiding when he’s out: a hint of fizz upon opening, leading into a spicy nose, candy-like fruits, and a devil-may-care playfulness it’s hard to get enough of. Our advice: let this wine breathe a bit first.

Gut Oggau
Stephanie and Eduard Tscheppe-Eselböck bought an old, abandoned 17th century vineyard in Burgenland, Austria in 2007. Instead of trying to change the winery, they discovered its natural potential. Each Gut Oggau bottle is distinct, world-class, and full of personality.

Behind the Bottle
After Stephanie and Eduard produced their first vintage, they were surprised by how much personality came through each barrel — and so the Gut Oggau wine family was born. Each bottle features a portrait of a fictional family member, communicating the differences in terroir through the portraits on the labels. Today, Gut Oggau is perhaps the most prolific and recognizable natural winery in the world.
