Wine Description
Bright ruby red with garnet reflections and a slightly transparent rim, brilliant
bouquet, pure black- & sour cherry and white currants, forest berries with a
touch of herbal spice and decent toasting, soft at the beginning with moderate
weight, then sappy, fresh and fruity carried by an elegant backbone of still
juvenile tannins and animating acidity, elegant yet tightly woven with a long
delicate finish.
Winery
Weingut Bründlmayer is situated in Langenlois, some 70km north-west of Vienna, upstream along the Danube in the Lower Austrian Kamp Valley. The wooded hills of the Waldviertel protect the vineyards from the cold north-westerly winds. During the day, the sun warms the stony terraces, while at night the fresh, fragrant forest air drifts through the Kamp Valley into the Langenloiser Arena.
