Falstaff Wineguide Austria 2022/23

For winemaker Christoph Edelbauer in Langenlois, everything is in harmony with nature and with the Kamptal: Winery, work and wine. He knows what he wants, loves the challenge and follows his path straightforwardly and consistently. Christoph Edelbauer pressed his first vintage in 2003, and today the winemaker cultivates twelve hectares of vineyards and processes the grapes at his architecturally-sophisticated winery in the middle of the Langenlois vines, which was completed in 2013. "Sustainable thinking and mathods are deeply rooted in me. That is why it is important to me that our winery maintains a manageable size. Only in this way can I dedicate myself with conviction to the entire process of vinification," explains Edelbauer, who consistently pays attention to the conscious use of resources. He cultivates his vineyards organically, he had his new building constructed according to energy efficient principles, and the air conditioning in his cellar is provided by environmentally-friendly ground air collectors.

The design of Edelbauer's equipment is also reduced and all the more memorable: Direct screen printing on the bottles replaces the labels, the cartons are printed in a minimalist manner, and business cards and stationery are produced on natural paper - an overall concept for sustainability right down the line.

Christoph Edelbauer's wines are captivating in their simplicity; they are unfussy, relaxed and exciting at the same time - this applies to the entire range, with Grüner Veltliner, Riesling and Pinot Noir being his flagships. As a winemaker, he is consistent. In his work he relies on sustainability; the essence is and remains the Kamptal: Christoph Edelbauer is preparing to show what the new Kamptal is all about.
