"Low tech - high effort" is the motto of Günter and Regina Triebaumer. Building on Rust's core competence - Blaufränkisch, Furmint and Gelber Muskateller as well as Ruster Früh - winegrowing is practiced here in the time-honoured free town of Rust with reason, passion and down-to-earthness. The Triebaumers produce wines that are and remain clearly attributable to Burgenland. In doing so, they apply experience from many years in the international wine and food trade, in import and export, in the Austrian Wine Academy and from extensive wine travels. The "Burgundian" structures - 24 hectares on 45 parcels - are historically determined. The Blaufränkisch is the self-confident "boss" with eight hectares: both classic, fine cherry fruit and multi-layered and spicy in the form of the Blaufränkisch Reserve. The first yield from the chalky Oberer Wald vineyard immediately won the "Falstaff Reserve Trophy" for the 2009 vintage. And with the lime-free silicate Plachen site, the Triebaumers also have a second great Blaufränkisch in their range. There is no doubt that Ruster Ausbruch is the oldest uninterrupted designation of provenance for wine in Austria. At Triebaumer, this concentrated sweet wine of character is always made from the reliable Welschriesling. But the "Muscato" - a light, lively sparkling wine made from Gelber Muskateller using the Asti method - certainly deserves a special mention.
