Deep ruby red with garnet reflections and violet shimmer - a wine that visually reveals its origin from 85 to 110-year-old vines.<\/p>\n
Complex and multi-layered: Black cherries<\/strong> and Elderberries<\/strong> dominate, followed by Wild herbs<\/strong> and a mineral note of Tar and peat<\/strong>. With air contact, an impressive depth of flavour develops with Violets<\/strong> and stony nuances - a prime example of the volcanic soils of the Lutzmannsburg Plateau.<\/p>\n This Blaufr\u00e4nkisch shows impressive maturity after just four years, but has the potential to age for at least two decades. The tannins are Mature and elegant<\/strong>envelop the palate like velvet. Between red and dark berries<\/strong> the flavour oscillates, underpinned by earthy notes<\/strong> and a precise minerality. Despite its density and fullness, it remains light and dancing - a masterpiece of balance.<\/p>\n Roland Velich vinifies this selection from six parcels with 20% whole-cluster fermentation in open wooden vats. After 23-28 days of maceration, the wine was aged on the lees for eleven years and a further twelve months in 500-litre barrels. Unfined, unfiltered and minimally sulphurised. Natural winemaking<\/strong> at the highest level.<\/p>\n Perfect for Mountain cheese dumplings with mushrooms and blackberry reduction<\/strong>, stuffed quails with blood orange<\/strong> or one Pheasant terrine with goose liver<\/strong>. The structure and complexity harmonise perfectly with strong, earthy aromas.<\/p>\n An authentic expression of the Pannonian climate<\/strong> and the volcanic soils. The old vines give the wine a concentration and depth that modern plants cannot achieve. A wine for the patient - its true potential will only unfold in the coming years.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Palate<\/h3>\n
