Tasting Notes

In the glass, there are intense aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry and graphite. On the palate it is compact and supported by ripe tannins and elegant acidity. In this blend, the two varieties impressively show the powerful style typical of the region that characterizes great red wines from Burgenland. This wine is great as a soloist or paired with dark meats.
