About this Wine

An unusual but truly compelling blend of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc & Welshriesling.

‘Tó’ translates as ‘Lake’ in Hungarian and this is Heinz’ homage to the magnificent and import Lake Neusiedl. Grown on deep sand & gravel soils the three varieties are at home in the Seewinkel and come together here to make a wine that truly reflects the environment in which the grapes are grown.

Spontaneous ferment, raised in larger format old wood with extended time on lees, and no additions with the exception of a small amount of sulphur at bottling. A truly harmonious blend where there is a distinct saltiness to the wine that is often attributed to the Chardonnay, with a fresh, herbal element coming from the Sauvignon and the Welshriesling adding a subtle spiciness to the nose. Aromatic to a degree but a wine that weaves between richness and freshness with ease. A distinct wine of place that is incredibly moreish and a thrill to watch unfurl and evolve once splashed into your glass.- Velich

About Austrian Wine

Austria is a country with over 4000 years of wine making history, however, it unfortunately doesn't seem to enjoy the status and popularity that the high quality of it's wines deserve. Decades later, the country is still feeling the effects of a scandal in 1985 that destroyed its credibility at the time.

Grüner Veltliner is the most important wine made in Austria, distinguished by its lightly fruity, noticeable spice and characteristic white pepper notes. This variety comprises roughly a third of all plantings. In terms of volume, Riesling plays a much smaller role than in Germany, but is responsible for some of the most appreciated dry white wines made in the country.

In red varietals, Austrian native varieties are dominant and include the tart and peppery Zweigelt, spicy and dense Blaufränkisch and juicy Saint Laurent.
