Primus

About

Primus has held Ried Zieregg since 1913, when the great-grandfather acquired the vineyard. That single parcel has remained in family hands for 110 years. The portfolio spans Zweigelt and Apollo Klassik reds alongside a precise lineup of whites. Welschriesling, Weissburgunder, Gelber Muskateller, and Chardonnay each appear in both classic and unfiltered Terra expressions. Sauvignon Blanc from Ried Zieregg earned International Gold. Südsteiermark DAC designations anchor the Welschriesling, Weissburgunder, and Gelber Muskateller.
