Viticulture Schwarz:

Around twenty years ago, trained butcher Hans Schwarz from Andau took an unusual risk: he turned his butchery into a hobby and his previous hobby, viticulture, into a profession. But it was the right decision. As the warmest place in Austria, Andau offers the best conditions for making great wines. Not least because of Hans' often unorthodox methods, the Schwarz wines quickly became a cult favourite. Hans Schwarz favoured the indigenous Zweigelt, which is still praised today as "Schwarz-Rot" by wine lovers, wine journalists, wine connoisseurs and wine restaurateurs. The "The Butcher" line is a tribute to the beginnings. However, the future must not be forgotten, and so Michael Schwarz, who has been running the day-to-day business since 2018, is now expanding "The Butcher" to include international grape varieties. Michael returned after many internships abroad to continue his father's work. He is planning two new lines in the premium and basic range for the coming year.

Das Weingut selbst wird um einen gemütlichen Verkostungsraum erweitert, wo man nicht nur die österreichischen Kult-Rotweine selbst probieren kann, sondern auch burgenländische Schmankerl wie hausgemachten Speck oder Hans’ berühmte Chili-Käsekrainer. Denn Essen und Trinken gehören bei Schwarz seit eh und je zusammen. Michael versucht so zu erreichen, was man von allen jungen Winzern verlangt: alles genauso wie der Vater zu machen – und dabei ganz anders.
