"IN THE FIRST PLACE
WE WANT TO
CONVINCE & INSPIRE,
NOT SELL."
The Fux Restaurant has been around since 1998 , the Fux Wine Agency for almost as long. Over time, the subject of wine developed from a hobby to a passion, and the knowledge about it developed into expertise. When everyone else lay on the beach reading crime novels in the summer season, Peter Strolz lifted 5kg 'Broadbends Wine Lexicon' towards the sky. What he found exciting while reading, he tried at tastings. In the course of time, preferences turned from Austria to Italy, touched the New World and the deeper Peter Strolz's relationship with oenology became, the clearer his personal insight: it has to be France if it is to be good.
"The quality of the Burgundy wines in the form of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir is unique." And this rating also applies to the second star of the range: champagne. However, the wine agency does not work with large champagne factories, but only with small wineries. "It's like comparing hand-made bespoke shoes made of leather and Adiletten," says Peter Strolz:
Peter Strolz is the heart of the Fux Wine Agency.
The premise for the wine trade is simple: only what Peter likes himself is sold. What may seem snobbish stems from a fundamentally honest attitude:
"WE VALUE PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS ."
On wine tours to the small and special wineries in Burgundy and Champagne, wine jewels are sought and found beyond the well-known names. These enrich the range and bring variety to the wine glass and the cellar.
Each wine is personally tasted and selected . The wine is only included in the range if the quality is convincing. Price-performance ratio has to be right, but that doesn't mean that you have to dig deep into your pockets for Burgundy wines and champagne. You can certainly do that, no question about it, but the list of the wine agency also includes the most wonderful everyday wines that do not hurt the purse at all.
Handshake quality, a good dose of humor and uncomplicated interaction with one another makes the wine agency's business relationships pleasant. And amicable. Both to the customers and to the winemaker partners.
