Heinrich Blaufränkisch 2018 12% Vol. 0,75l

CHARACTER

Refreshing red-berried fruit meets piquant herbal spice and invigorating pepperiness. Its delineated, compact body swings in cophasal harmony with fine-grained, soft tannins and a delicate, animating acid nerve. A proud representative of its pedigree that cheerfully reveals its edges and corners.

ORIGIN

The harmonious unification of two worlds - the east and west side of the Neusiedler See (Lake Neusiedl). This autochthon variety is exemplary for Burgenland and feels just as comfortable in the limestone and schist of the Leithaberg (Leitha Mountains) as it does on the sandy loam on the south escarpment of the Parndorfer Platte (Parndorfer Plain).
