I'll drink to that where we get behind the scenes of the beverage business.

I'm Levy Dalton.

I'm Erin Scala and here's our show today. Oh, I Heidi Schrock is here from Roost in Austria, nice to see you.

Hello, good to be here.

Very nice to have you here.

So your family firm started really with your father.

My family started around 1770 with a farm, but my father was the first to concentrate on wine so he was only having vineyards and

and farming grapes. And what's Roost life?

Roast is a lovely small pitterez town with very old houses.

You know the houses were all built in the 16th, 17th century and as very important markets got lost in the seven years war between Maria

Teresa and Friedrich the second the houses are still like that because all by the sudden the money ran out and so they couldn't modernize and so we have this beautiful old houses and the very special thing is that in these beautiful old houses we have our farms,

which is sometimes not very easy because it's small and tiny and narrow and steep staircases, but it's of course a very very beautiful atmosphere.

So at one time Roost was very prosperous and then it went through a period where it was harder to make money there.

Yeah, yeah, it was harder to make money there. Yeah, yeah.

It was maybe in the 16th century, especially when sweet things were very rare.

Like it was only honey and it was made it was the wine made out of honey but sugar

out of the sugar beet was not invented so other sweet things like noble sweet wine were very precious and very thought after and so this was maybe our really glorious time.

Because Roost is known for Rooster Ospro, historically and time. surface of Lake Noiseido. We have in almost every year we have

potritus and so we can make noble speed winds. So there's a really long shallow

lake there and it gives the humidity.

Yes, it's only one and a half meter deep so you can walk through if you are tall enough like you

Levy.
