Wine Description
The wine presents itself in the glass with a deep ruby red colour and violet reflections. On the nose, aromas of cherries and sour cherries unfold, accompanied by red berries and fine spice. On the palate, it is juicy and rounded, with soft tannins, lively, slightly wild acidity and a pleasant drinking flow.
Food Pairing
A versatile food companion for pasta with tomato sauce, grilled meat, hearty braised dishes and mild game dishes, also pairing beautifully with spicy cheese and traditional Austrian cold platters.
