The "Pannobile" winemaker Paul Achs from Gols joined his parents' winery with the 1991 harvest: just four years later, he was named "Falstaff Winemaker of the Year". Since then, the business, which was once dedicated to white wine and has always combined tradition with modern cellar technology, has become a producer of excellent red wines. The proportion of red wine has now reached 90 percent. Paul Achs does not produce show wines, he focuses on elegance and finesse. The majority of the wines are matured in barriques. This applies to Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc as well as to the red wine specialties - from Pinot Noir to Blaufränkisch "Ungerberg" and the "Pannobile" cuvée. An extreme harvest restriction to a maximum of 3,000 kilograms of grapes per hectare is regarded as a prerequisite for the highest quality - efforts that have long since paid off, because today Paul Achs' wines are among the best in the Austrian red wine scene, as the annual Falstaff red wine awards prove: Paul Achs' wines are always among the absolute best.
