Weingut Hans & Anita Nittnaus Blaufränkisch Leithaberg DAC Lange Ohn 2021 0,75l

Blaufränkisch Lange Ohn from Anita & Hans Nittnaus is sourced from a stony hillside close to Lake Neusiedl, where calcareous soils and cooling breezes allow slow ripening. In the glass it shows a deep, brilliant ruby colour. The bouquet combines ripe cherry and dark berry fruit with herbal nuances, a touch of tobacco and spicy mineral notes. On the palate the wine is dense and tightly knit, with firm structure, ripe tannins and vibrant acidity. Marked stony minerality gives depth and drives the very long finish. A powerful single-vineyard Blaufränkisch from Leithaberg that pairs well with game, braised beef, hearty stews and mature hard cheeses.

Twenty-two months in 500-litre casks give the Blaufränkisch depth, length and a finely spicy outline.
