"Less is more" is the philosophy to which Uwe Schiefer has committed himself from the very beginning. In the vineyard and during vinification, virtually no technology is used to bring out the character of the terroir and the variety. "Without exception, the wine defines itself in the vineyard," says Uwe Schiefer, who is thus one of the absolute pioneers of a delicate and pure Blaufränkisch style.
Schiefer recultivates ancient steep slopes on the Eisenberg, but also typical white wine sites on the Tschaterberg and in Markt Neuhodis, where he develops new taste qualities, especially with Welschriesling. The flagship is the extremely storable "Blaufränkisch Ried Reihburg", which is selected from vines up to 80 years old and aged in large wooden barrels.
In June 2020, René Gabriel rated the 2011 vintage with 20 out of 20 points, and in the fall of 2022, Uwe Schiefer won the Falstaff Reserve Trophy ex aequo with the Blaufränkisch Ried Reihburg 2018.
Other top wines include "Blaufränkisch Ried Szapary", "Blaufränkisch vom blauen Schiefer" or the Pinot Noir and Merlot.
