Pretty Nuts 2021 - Koppitsch

Pretty Nuts- Koppitsch

Pretty Nuts by Koppish is an Austrian sparkling wine obtained from a blend of Blaufränkisch and Syrah with the method of refermentation in the bottle. Vinification with direct pressing of whole bunches, drawing off before the start of fermentation in fiberglass. At the right point of fermentation, the wine is bottled (by the whole family, by hand). Disgorged by hand, no addition of sulphites.

Service

We taste it at a temperature of 6/8° in tulip glass. Wine is to be drunk immediately but can give fantastic emotions if stored for a few years.

Pairing

Wine goes perfectly with first courses, grilled and stewed fish, to try with ravioli with tongue and cabbage.

Cellar: Koppitsch

Alexander and Maria Koppitsch started making wine in Burgenland in 2011. after they took over the winery of Alexander's parents, who are dedicated to producing grapes for sale. 5.5 hectares of vineyards located in Neusiedl am See, a small village located on the shores of Lake Neusidl and at the eastern end of the Leitha mountains, characterized by gentle hills of limestone soil. Like his father and grandfather before him, Alex does not believe in introducing additives into grapes or wine, he uses Rudolf Steiner's biodynamic principles to grow his grapes and and is proud to perform every aspect of vineyard management and of hand vinification, on a very small scale. They make 4 distinct wine lines; Fun wines: Homok, Juh, Rosza, Rét, gluglu wines recognizable by the small design on the screw cap, Perspective wines, characterized by labels depicting swallows and birds, a symbol of luck in Austrian culture, Il Touch, an extraordinary orange wine and finally, the Pretty line, dedicated to pét-nat.
