Blaufränkisch is a very old traditional Austrian red wine variety and one of the most precious we have. Its main characteristic lies in the pronounced fruitiness which very few other varieties are able to approach. Other distinctive qualities are an appealing tannin level, an inspiring acidity and the noticable effect of the soil on the overall appearance. Blaufränkisch wines are famous for their drinkability which they are able to prove at many opportunities.


Tasting Notes:

Our semi dry Blaufränkisch 2004 shows a deep red colour. The fruity impression from the bouquet is reinforced on the palate. Its unobtrusive sweetness almost completely covers the tender-tart tannins and the wine is astoundingly mild, harmonic and pleasant to the taste.
