Karl & Gustav Strauss

About

Gustav Strauss established Karl & Gustav in Steinbach bei Gamlitz in 2008, working within Gamlitzberg, one of Südsteiermark's largest contiguous vineyard areas. The program avoids herbicides and insecticides. Ried Gamlitzberg wines ferment in large neutral oak barrels and age six months on fine lees. For Südsteiermark DAC, hand labor and hand harvest precede traditional dry fermentation in steel tanks. Since 2015, concrete eggs and amphorae join wooden barrels for aging Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay from Ried Hundsberg. The portfolio spans Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Weißburgunder, Morillon, Gelber Muskateller, Welschriesling, Grauburgunder, Rheinriesling, Sämling 88, Muscaris Piwi, and Zweigelt.
