In the mid-1990s, Tibor Szemes, F.X. Pichler and Manfred Tement joined forces to launch an extraordinary project. Inspired by top-quality French wines and driven by their shared passion for red wine, they had a vision to create an outstanding Austrian red wine that would combine their expertise with the finest vineyard sites in Burgenland. Their aim was to produce a premium red wine of international calibre and to put ‘red wine made in Austria’ on the global map. In 1998, after two years’ ageing, they presented the first Arachon T.FX.T from the 1996 vintage – a milestone for Austrian red wines.

Arachon T.FX.T from Burgenland is a refined cuvée composed of 80 per cent Blaufränkisch, 10 per cent Zweigelt, 5 per cent Merlot and 5 per cent Cabernet Sauvignon. The vines thrive on soils of mica schist, loam and loess, which lend the wine its characteristic depth and complexity. After harvest, the wine matures for 18 to 20 months in new 500-litre barrels, allowing it to develop remarkable structure and a rich bouquet. It is then bottled and sealed with a natural cork.
