Joiseph is a collaborative project between viticulturists Richard Artner and Alex Kagl, and winemaker Luka Zeichmann, who is still in his mid-twenties. All of the vineyards are near or around the town of Jois, just north of lake Neusiedl in Burgenland - 'See' means Lake in German, so Jois-'see'-ph is sort of a play on words and represents a fictional character. Nic from Modal Wines, who imports these wines to the UK said "Luka is perhaps one of the most gentle and humble human beings I've had the chance to meet. He is so connected to his land, to nature, to his vines... He grew up in Burgenland, his family have always had organic plots, organic orchards (from which they make incredible natural ciders), so farming organically and making wines with the littlest possible intervention has never been a question, it's a complete way of life for him. He does not have wifi at home, hardly ever uses social media... wise beyond his years. When I told him he should get on Instagram, his reply was 'sure... but then I need a phone with a camera.' LOL - Definitely GOOD PEOPLES. This is a skin-contact wine made with 100% Welschriesling (no relation to Riesling!), it's cloudy, full of character and nuance.
