Gerhard’s meticulous vineyard work on some of Austria’s steepest vineyards, combined with a restrained, thoughtful approach in the cellar, has earned him recognition both at home and internationally.Beyond his role as a winemaker, Gerhard is an advocate for preserving Südsteiermark’s distinct identity, championing its complex terroirs and continuing his family’s multi-generational legacy with passion and precision.ABOUT TRINK TRINKTalks has been brought to you by TRINK Magazine, an independent quarterly digital publication exploring the “German-speaking wines” of Austria, Germany, Italy, and Switzerland.LEARN MORE:https://www.facebook.com/trinkmaghttps://www.instagram.com/trink_magazine/https://x.com/magazinetrink?lang=enABOUT THE HOSTS: Valerie Kathawala specializes in the wine cultures, traditions, and innovations of Germany, Austria, South Tyrol, and Switzerland, as well as those closer to her home in New York City.
