Wine Expert Note:

Meinklang's Burgenland Red pours a bright, inviting ruby color, signaling a wine that is both approachable and layered. The nose is greeted with a bouquet of fresh red berries, cherries, and a hint of spice, complemented by an earthy undertone that speaks to its biodynamic origins. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, with a juicy acidity that balances the wine's fruit-forward profile. Flavors of raspberry, blackberry, and a touch of pepper unfold, leading to a smooth, easy-drinking finish with subtle tannins.

This Markus Altenburger Ried Satz is made from Blaufränkisch grapes sourced from the various plots around the village of Jois, mainly from the younger vines. This wine is designed to express the joyful, approachable side of Blaufränkisch. The grapes are harvested, crushed and fermented in inert vessels at cooler temperatures with a focus on lighter extraction to create softer, fruit-forward wines that are highly varietally-expressive. The wine is matured for a short period in inert vessel prior to release to harmonise the flavors.
