"All the red, elevated energy and evergreen of the Prellenkirchen and the black, intellectual contemplation of the Obere Roterd come together in a single balanced whole. Everything a Blaufränkisch should be: poise and power with an unyielding acidity. Incredibly supple and thrilling; layered and complex. Fine-boned structure in pitch-perfect harmony. And a lingering savoury finish long after the glass (or the bottle) is gone." 19 pts JancisRobinson.com
100% Blaufrankisch from vineyards planted in 1950 and 1984 aged for 20 months in large old barrels. It really is an awesome wine, structured and fine with lovely dark fruits and a touch of spice, long and with an underlying freshness that just makes it so drinkable.
