There were enthusiastic voices and invitations for the group all the way to Beijing following the "Tasting with Respect" presentation by the respekt-BIODYN winemaker’s association, as led by Stephan Reinhardt, Robert Parker's expert for the German-speaking market. Together with eleven of the twenty-two vintners and over a hundred international guests from the wine trade and trade press, he tasted a representative wine from each winery and was impressed by their high quality: "The respekt producers make wines that express their points of origin, and aren’t oriented towards the market. Their wines are very, very authentic and lively, need a little engagement, and are fun. You can only make these wines with biodynamics, I am convinced of that!"
"We had an unbelievably big buzz around our tasting, which was fully booked within a short time. What a wonderful confirmation of our work and our wines. We will certainly also be holding a 'Tasting with Respect' at VieVinum 2020", says respekt chairman Michael Goëss-Enzenberg from the South Tyrolean Manincor winery.
respekt-BIODYN. respekt-BIODYN is a biodynamic association with the aim of producing outstanding wines with the highest possible individuality. respekt-BIODYN is based in Austria and has twenty-two members from Germany, Italy, Austria, and Hungary.

The respekt guidelines. In 2016, the strict respekt guidelines, containing aspects of modern agroecology and social, ecological, and economic sustainability, were revised.
