Leithaberg DAC Blaufränkisch 2019
Blaufränkisch from the Leithaberg is one of the world’s great autochtone wines. The variety shows enormous potential for maturation in our élevage, but is already lively with spices, fine tannin structure and red-berry fruit in its youth. An elegant, characterful red offering lots of drinking pleasure.
The Blaufränkisch Leithaberg DAC comes from what are probably the best Pinot-family vineyards in Sankt Margarethen and Breitenbrunn. Its high fossil limestone & quartz content gives the wine a great deal of finesse, elegance and ‘that certain characterful spicy something’. Nearby Lake Neusiedl reflects sunlight onto the gentle slopes and thus ensures optimum ripening.
Selective hand-harvesting from organically cultivated vineyards; partially spontaneous, very gentle fermenta- tion in 500 litre tonneaus and careful aging for a year in the 300-year-old cellars of the Hofkellerei create a wine with distinctive structure.
Brilliant Ruby-Red, blueberries and wild cherries in the bouquet, a bit of wild raspberries, nougat, cinnamon and tobacco; on the palet spicy, with light smokiness and dried exotic fruit. Vibrant, fresh structure, rich minerality and liveliness on the great, long finish.
Perfect with rich meat dishes, fine pasta and Asian-inspired cuisine.
