Sattler
Sattler is based in Burgenland, Austria's easternmost wine region and a source of distinctive red wines. The winery focuses on indigenous Austrian varieties, particularly St. Laurent and Zweigelt—grapes that thrive in Burgenland's continental climate and warm summers. St. Laurent, a dark-skinned variety with natural structure and moderate tannins, forms the backbone of Sattler's portfolio, alongside Zweigelt, known for its bright acidity and red-fruit character. The winery's St. Laurent and Zweigelt Reserve both demonstrate the precision and balance characteristic of serious Austrian red production. Wine Spectator has rated Sattler's releases. The Burgenland terroir—shaped by the influence of Lake Neusiedl and its microclimate—supports the ripeness and complexity these varieties require.
