You want winemaking history? How about 10 generations of single estate, Frank family goodness! In Austria’s Niederösterreich, Harald and Johanna Frank see themselves as equal parts winemakers and caretakers of this legacy. Clean, nuanced, and just a bit spicy, the Frank family’s Weinviertel Gruner is pitch-perfect thanks to low yields, loess soils, and 40+ year-old vines. It’s an exquisitely vertical wine, with fruit underpinned by heaping spoonfuls of crushed rock. A gorgeous, streamlined experience.

Try saying “Zweigelt Herrnbaumgarten” 5 times real fast, and you’ll sound like... well, Harald Frank, 10th generation winemaker from Weingut Frank. Located in Austria's NE corner (Niederösterreich), he and his wife, Johanna, manage an estate worthy of the Edelweiss imagery. With an exceptionally dry, cool climate, they produce linear, taut, targeted wines that speak to the morraine (glacial) soil that sits atop a clay-marl base. Here, they present their vibrant Zweigelt, enriched by older vines, an array of bold minerals, and 2-3 extra weeks on vine.

The global bubbly movement continues! This charming sparkler has all the street appeal of Prosecco, but comes from a tenth-generation producer who has mastered Gruner Veltliner. Farming his vines in the coolest, driest corner of Austria, Harald Frank sets aside a small amount of fruit for this wine (just enough to make a single, small tank). And like everything he produces, this frizzante is bright, clean, and streamlined... in this case with a mid-palate that offers up ripe orchard fruits and springtime blossoms. To say it goes down easy is a serious understatement. Prost!

From one of the coolest and driest growing zones in Austria, this crowd-pleasing, European-style rose hits on all cylinders: a pleasing pink hue, ample red berry on both the nose and palate, clean structure, and a balanced finish. Crafted by tenth-generation producer Harald Frank and his family, this small batch wine rarely makes it all the way to this side of the Atlantic! Primarily a blend of Zweigelt - the country's zingy, mainstay red variety - and Pinot Noir, it's the perfect weave of the exotic and the familiar.
