Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
A superb roundup of the legendary Rudi Picher’s array of world-class whites on tap today - ultra-limited quantities, SHARP pricing and rafts of critical acclaim...time to grab what you can from THE man in the Wachau!
What a lineup! The head spins. We’ll be drinking these all Summer, not to mention summer of 2029 and beyond! As noted, we’ve got a VERY little to go around, so it’s definitely first come, first served. Truly fantastic opportunity to explore Rudi’s range of wonderful, laser-like whites!
About the Producer
Rudi Pichler is one of the elite producers in the Wachau region of Austria. The production of his wines is 65% Gruner Veltliner and 30% Riesling with the remaining 5% shared between Weissburgunder and Roter Veltliner. The word Achleithen comes from "ach: meaning water path and "leiten" referring to the slope. This is one of the most famous vineyards in the Wachau with gneiss and rocky soils which gives the wines a distinct mineral flavor.
