Producer description of "Weinbau Andreas Tscheppe"

The winery is located in the municipality of Glanz in the Austrian wine-growing region of southern Styria at the highest point of the Langeggerberg near the border with Slovenia. It was taken over and rebuilt by Andreas and Elisabeth Tscheppe (brother Ewald Tscheppe owns the Werlitsch winery). The new vineyards were planted on terraces and cover four hectares of vines, three of which are trrass. They are planted with the white wine varieties Sauvignon Blanc, Morillon, Welschriesling, Gelber Muskateller and Goldmuskateller, as well as Pinot Noir. Biodynamic viticulture is practised on all vineyards. The work in the vineyards is partly carried out in consideration of the phases of the moon, in order to include the effect of the moon on the water and thus also on the plants. The aim is to grow powerful vines with deep roots, because these reach deeper soil layers.

The glossary is a monumental achievement and one of the most important contributions to wine knowledge. Of all the encyclopaedias I use on the subject of wine, it is by far the most important. That was the case ten years ago and it hasn't changed since.
