Wine Description
Rosé or light red, decide for yourself. We do not care about the color, we care about taste. This juicy, fruitdriven wine is composed of Rösler, Zweigelt and other regional reds and was vinified in used oak barrels for 12 months, without filtration or fining. Cool climate juiciness the way we like it!
