Gesellmann Blaufränkisch vom Lehm 2023 0,75l

Blaufränkisch vom Lehm from Gesellmann is a truly regional wine grown on heavy clay soils around Deutschkreutz. The vineyards are farmed organically, the grapes are picked by hand and handled gently in the cellar. The bouquet shows juicy cherry, blackberry, hints of liquorice and a touch of white pepper. On the palate the wine is spicy, lively and fresh in structure, with bright acidity and fine-grained tannins. Maturation in large wooden casks preserves the fruit and adds depth. A versatile partner for roasts, hearty pasta dishes or traditional Austrian cuisine.

Seven months in large oak casks gives the Blaufränkisch a juicy fruit core and peppery spice.

Pannonian warmth, loam and clay give the backdrop for reds with natural grip. During the 1980s, Engelbert Gesellmann helped redefine Burgenland by planting international varieties and embracing French barriques, setting a benchmark that still echoes in the cellar....

The grape variety: Blaufränkisch

Blaufränkisch is a Central European red grape known for dark cherry, pepper, fresh acidity and structured tannins. It is especially important in Austria and Hungary.

The grape is exciting because it combines elegance with savoury spice. Pair Blaufränkisch with duck, pork, lamb, goulash, mushrooms, sausages and hard cheeses.
