The intense elderberry and licorice nose pulls you in immediately. This is a highly expressive blaufränkisch with a sleek silhouette that is packed with spices and minerals. A very long and almost breathtaking finish. Bottled after three years in large neutral wood. Drink or hold.

The elderberry and sour-cherry aromas of this wine are really intense, but on top of that a mass of herbal notes give it serious complexity, power and concentration. The body is delivered without a hint of heaviness, the freshness without a hint of sharpness, and a very long, silky finish makes this a near-perfect single-vineyard blaufränkisch.

This enormously concentrated red with ultra-fine tannins has just been released after more than four years of barrel aging. In spite of that, it still has some bright floral notes alongside all the berries, candied citrus and a hint of bitter chocolate. And just when you thought it is going to stop, another wave of flavor pours over the palate. Stunning now, but should have decades ahead of it.

A stunning nose of spices, licorice and a hint of graphite. A dark and dangerous red that combines warmth with great freshness. The moderately dry tannins drive the long peppery finish. Drink or hold.
