Ried Setz Blaufränkisch 2020

Located below the Tatschler vineyard, the Setz vineyard in our winery has a unique feature. It is the only vineyard that has a significant amount of slate. Documented since 1569, grapes with a special aroma grow here. Unlike all our wines grown on Leithakalk, the weathered slate imparts a cool freshness and profound elegance to this wine. The south-facing orientation of the vineyard and the resulting sunlight during long late summer days allow the grapes to ripen optimally until autumn.

Dark ruby garnet, violet reflections, delicate brightening at the edges. Fresh black cherries, subtle nuances of forest berries, delicate herbal spice, underlaid with minerality. Juicy, complex, elegant, dark berry fruit, fine supporting tannins, a hint of mint and dark nougat, good length, has aging potential.
