Werner Achs

Werner Achs

The young, ambitious Werner Achs uncompromisingly represents his wine style with an extremely focused wine range of only three wines. His first wine, X.U.R, is a barrique-aged cuvée made from Zweigelt, Blaufränkisch, and St. Laurent, while his second wine, Goldberg, is a single-varietal, intensely spicy Zweigelt. In exceptional years, there is also a strictly limited edition Werner Achs Reserve, available exclusively in magnum bottles, a cuvée made from Blaufränkisch and Merlot.

Werner Achs sees this focus as an essential aspect of giving the wine the ideal treatment and producing the highest quality. The results speak for themselves: in addition to numerous top rankings at state tastings, including directly with his first vintage in 2000, his wines are in high demand and sell out early every year. Werner Achs only began making his own wine in 1999, after several years of training and traveling, with 1.3 hectares of vineyards inherited from his uncle. His knack for vines and winemaking was immediately apparent: the 2000 Zweigelt Goldberg won the Zweigelt Grand Prix in the Falstaff Red Wine Guide, and the 2001 X.U.R took second place in the cuvées. His wines regularly appeared on the podium in the following years, and in 2013, the XUR 2011 took second place in the overall ranking. In 2014, the XUR 2012 became the overall Falstaff winner.
