2019 started out with a dry winter, followed by a relatively warm spring. The cool and very wet May delayed vegetation but ensured water reserves for the hot and dry June, July and August. Harvest started at the beginning of September.

Wine Description
Only child - Blaufränkisch DAUGHTER - You know the feeling? Sometimes a piece of art touches you and you don’t know why? Same thing with this wine. You can really drink it but it’s not glouglou. Not fruity. But it has wonderful fruit. Drink it now. Or in years. No boundaries in the cellar. So you don’t taste them in the wine.
Vinification
whole bunch, crushed by feet, fermented in our tea mixing barrel, aged in one self made 112 liter oak barrel and some glass jars, unfiltered, no addition of sulfites
