MORIC
Moric is one of Austria’s most influential and internationally acclaimed wineries, renowned for redefining the potential of Blaufränkisch and elevating Burgenland’s reputation on the global fine wine stage. Founded by Roland Velich, Moric has become synonymous with terroir-driven winemaking, producing wines that combine elegance, complexity, and exceptional ageing potential.
Based in Burgenland, eastern Austria, Moric focuses on old-vine vineyards located in some of the region’s most prestigious sites, particularly around Mittelburgenland and Neckenmarkt. These vineyards benefit from diverse soils including schist, limestone, and clay, which contribute depth, structure, and distinctive mineral character to the wines.
Moric is best known for its Blaufränkisch wines, which have earned comparisons to some of the world's finest terroir-driven reds. The wines typically display aromas of blackberry, sour cherry, violet, black pepper, herbs, and mineral notes. On the palate, they are refined and precise, with vibrant acidity, fine tannins, and remarkable transparency to site. Rather than emphasising power, Moric wines focus on finesse, balance, and expression of terroir.
The winery follows a philosophy of minimal intervention and meticulous vineyard management. Low yields, careful fruit selection, native yeast fermentation, and restrained use of oak allow each vineyard to express its unique identity. This Burgundian-inspired approach has helped establish Moric as a benchmark producer of Central European fine wine.
Flagship wines such as Moric Blaufränkisch Reserve and Moric Alte Reben (Old Vines) have received widespread critical acclaim and are highly sought after by collectors, sommeliers, and wine enthusiasts worldwide.
Today, Moric stands as one of Austria’s most respected wineries, producing distinctive wines that showcase the extraordinary potential of Blaufränkisch and the unique terroirs of Burgenland.
