Expressive nose of red fruit with a lot of earthy depth! Excellent concentration for this humble category, with fine, powdery tannins and lively but ripe acidity. Complex finish with notes of clove, black pepper, cardamon and wild herbs. Salty touch, too. Drink or hold. SUART PIGOTT, James Suckling
The 2021 Blaufränkisch was harvested partly in the Leithagebirge but mostly from Lutzmannsburg in Mittelburgenland. It was fermented spontaneously in open cuve and matured in used barrels between 500 and 4,000 liters for 14 months. With a touch of smoky reduction, a tender note of blood on the nose takes a while to shine through. The wine spreads across the mouth in a smooth, almost cooling, soothing fashion, with a gentleness that holds dark petals like peony, aromatic tart, dark cherry and tart cranberry. The body is light, with just a veil of fine tannins that crinkle like chiffon. The 2021 is tender, red-fruited, bright and lasting. (Bone-dry) ANNE KREBIEHL W, Vinous
