naked red non-vintage 1500ml Magnum

Wine description for naked red non-vintage 1500ml Magnum by Heinrich

Colour & Appearance

Luminous, deep cherry red with a profound, almost impenetrable core and a brightened, ruby-red rim – a wine that already promises vibrancy in the glass.

Nose

The nose opens dark and seductive: cassis, elderberry and blackberry form the foundation, complemented by a crisp sour cherry that signals freshness rather than weight. An elegant hint of liquorice weaves like a red thread through the bouquet, lending it an ethereal, almost cool note. Juniper, green pepper and a wreath of fresh garden herbs round out the picture – complex, yet never overwrought.

Palate

On the palate, the Naked Red reveals its best side: slender, juicy and silky all at once. The attack is gripping and lively, without being pushy. The dark berry fruits of the nose give way to a bright, almost dancing raspberry and a precise sour cherry. The spice recedes into the background – what remains is an irresistible drinking flow that makes this wine pure pleasure.

Finish

Medium-length finale with fresh acidity and a pleasantly dry, slightly spicy aftertaste. Not a gram of excess – precise and inviting right to the last sip.

Terroir & Origin

The grapes come from two contrasting worlds around Lake Neusiedl: the cool limestone and slate sites of the Leitha Mountains in the west, as well as the warmer gravel soils of the Parndorf Plateau and the humus-rich Heide soil in the east. This multifaceted character is reflected directly in the glass.

Grape Variety & Vinification

A non-vintage cuvée, dominated by Zweigelt and Blaufränkisch, complemented by Sankt Laurent. Harvest takes place from late August to mid-September. Following spontaneous fermentation on the skins – both in wooden fermentation vessels and in steel tanks – the wine subsequently matures for more than a year in wooden fermentation vessels. A wine that unites craftsmanship and philosophy: unadorned, honest, alive.

Food Pairing Suggestions

Ideal with grilled feta with Mediterranean herbs and sun-dried tomatoes, an elegant beetroot carpaccio with burrata and pistachios or a rustic smoked venison ham with wild herb salad and cranberry. The magnum bottle makes it the ideal companion for convivial gatherings.

Special Features

The name says it all: „naked“ – unadorned, without vintage designation, without constraint. Heinrich deliberately embraces vintage-independent consistency and artisanal integrity. The 1.5-litre magnum bottle is not only a statement for enjoyment in company, but also guarantees slower, gentler maturation. A wine for people who love wine – without detours.
