Strohmeier TLZ Indigo Red Wine NV is made from Blauer Wildbacher vines. The grapes originate from the Lestein vineyard, situated on a steep slope with gneiss and loamy topsoil enriched with iron. Hand-harvested grapes undergo a four-week maceration period on the skins, with spontaneous primary fermentation. Following fermentation, the wine is softly pressed and aged for 24 months in used wooden barrels of 500 liters and smaller. This wine is unfined, unfiltered, and contains no added sulfur, aiming to preserve the natural characteristics of the grape.

Important Compliance Requirements

FedEx and other carriers we might occasionally use can only deliver wine to customers who are 21 years or older. Someone must be at the address to receive the package, carriers don't just drop a package and leave. They must ensure the person receiving the wine is 21 or older.


Re-shipping a Package

If a package is returned to us after three failed delivery attempts, we can only re-ship the wine upon payment of a re-shipping fee, to be determined based on the shipping address and number of bottles. Shipping wine is extremely expensive. We are sorry about this, but we have no other choice. Please make sure there's always someone at the address you enter as your shipping address.

If you'd like to receive a refund for a package that was returned to us after FedEx made three delivery attempts, we can do that but we must keep a $20 refund fee; FedEx charges us a lot of money for returns, unfortunately, I can't stress this enough.

We are not responsible for heat- or frost-related issues. We offer ice-packs upon request. Please let us know if you think that there could be heat-related issues. If we don't hear anything from you regarding weather issues before an order is shipped, or if you don't request a hold due to the weather, we are not responsible for heat/frost damage.

Producer profile

Strohmeier

Franz Strohmeier operates as a natural winemaker in Steiermark, part of Styria, Austria, often referred to as the "Green Heart" of Austria. He manages 8 hectares of vineyards, continuously exploring more natural viticulture methods. Notably, he recently began using whey to treat his vines instead of copper sulfate. Some of his vines are left unpruned, yielding intensely flavored, small grapes. Franz does not align with certified biodynamic organizations, yet his practices are reminiscent of biodynamic methods. He opts not to treat vines affected by disease, favoring natural selection to enhance overall vineyard health through increased biodiversity. His portfolio includes unique sparkling wines known for their finesse and the "Trauben, Liebe & Zeit" line—wines made without sulfur, utilizing only grapes, time, and care in their production.

Wine region

Styria, Austria

Styria, known as Steiermark, is located in southeastern Austria. It is one of Austria's four main wine regions. Due to its lush landscapes and extensive forests, the area is often referred to as the "Green Heart" of Austria. Styria is divided into three subregions: Südsteiermark, Weststeiermark, and Südoststeiermark.

Südsteiermark is famous for its aromatic white wines, particularly Sauvignon Blanc, which thrives in the region's hilly terrain and cool climate. Weststeiermark is known for the Schilcher, a rosé made from the indigenous Blauer Wildbacher grape. Südoststeiermark, on the other hand, produces a variety of red and white wine styles from a mix of local and international grape varieties.

The climate in Styria is predominantly continental, with Mediterranean influences, providing ideal conditions for viticulture. The soils vary across the region but are primarily composed of volcanic and sedimentary rock, contributing to the distinctive mineral profile found in Styrian wines.

Viticulture in Styria is characterized by small-scale producers with a focus on quality and sustainability. Many vineyards are steep and require hand harvesting, which is prevalent across the region. Styria also has a growing number of winemakers practicing organic and biodynamic viticulture, reflecting a regional commitment to natural wine-making methods.
