Welkovits

Austrian Blaufränkisch and Zweigelt from Burgenland's mineral-driven Neusiedlersee-Hügelland.

Welkovits operates in the Neusiedlersee-Hügelland, a subregion of Burgenland known for its continental climate and mineral-rich soils that favor dark-skinned varieties. The winery focuses on the indigenous grapes of eastern Austria: Blaufränkisch, St. Laurent, and Zweigelt. Taranis, a blend of all three, represents the winery's core expression—a wine that Falstaff has assessed at 90.3 points. The single-varietal Blaufränkisch, rated 90.0 by the same critic, showcases the grape's characteristic structure and dark fruit character. Zweigelt Classic, at 89.0 points, offers a more approachable entry to the winery's portfolio. These wines reflect the terroir and varietal identity of the Neusiedlersee-Hügelland, where cool nights and warm days create conditions suited to producing wines of depth and balance.
