natural winery / naked wine / living wine
Fisch und Vogel are...
lived utopia: the interaction of actually incompatible opposites in the daily reinvention of the common element.
Fisch und Vogel are...
the animals in the village coat of arms of Mörbisch am See.
Fisch und Vogel are...
the names of two young vineyards in the stony Waldacker vineyard, newly planted with Traminer/Donauriesling and Pinot Nova. Both are connected by Le grand bleu, above and below the horizon, the infinite blue of sky and water, namesake of the third garden - a Blaufränkisch, fat in the loam, in the Wieser vineyard.
Fisch und Vogel are...
an architect and a writer. Close to nature, obsessed with culture. Orient and Occident. Exuberant opulence and passionate concentration.
For Alexander Reza Tavakoli and Marion Vera Forster, everything revolves around the experiment of being. The two of them give it scope - in the old cinema at the entrance to the village and in the historic Stadl in Hauerstraße - in the heart of Mörbisch am See.
They have been combining winemaking and lakeside life here since 2015, and in their own winery since 2022.
In addition to their own Natural Winery, the Fisch und Vogel winery also runs a small wine shop for international natural wines.
What do the winemakers say...
"It's about more than the enjoyable trip around the world through the wine glass: creating space for emotions, flights of thought, expanded consciousness. Personally and out of pure interest. We work with joy and friends on extraordinary ventures, radically undisguised, without chi chi and synthetic chemistry, in the spirit of nature - and in the sign of awakened spirits."
What do the winemakers do...
low intervention / hand-selected and hand-picked / unsulphured / spontaneously fermented (naked, but cared for!) ... and left alone: "our wine lives, matures and breathes in amphorae of unfired clay."
