Gut Oggau Timotheus 2023
One of The Parents, Timotheus is described by the Gut Oggau family as -
It's always nice to have Timotheus with us. We love his depth and dignity, his ironic wit and his powerful stature. He delights us with stories about his homeland, the limestone soil and the slate landscapes.
Every anecdote is an allegory of his inexhaustible energy and insatiable joy of life. In his company we learn more about life in general and about ourselves. About how to accept things as they are and how to be at peace with ourselves and our surroundings. And we also learn not to take ourselves too seriously. Make friends with Timotheus. With every sip he gives you a healthy dose of hedonistic joy of life.
