Wine Description:
Moric Lutzmannsburg Alte Reben Blaufränkisch is a distinguished wine from Austria's Burgenland region, crafted by the renowned Moric winery. This exceptional selection comes from some of the oldest and most prestigious Blaufränkisch vines, aged between 85 and 110 years, situated on the ancient volcanic plateau of Lutzmannsburg. The unique terroir, comprising limestone sandstone, clay, sand, and volcanic deposits, imparts a distinct character to the wine. Approximately 20% of the harvest is fermented as whole clusters in open wooden vats for 23 to 28 days, followed by aging on the lees for 11 months in 500- and 600-liter barrels, and an additional 12 months in 500-liter barrels. This meticulous process results in a wine that is complex, elegant, and age-worthy, reaching its peak after four years but capable of aging beautifully for over a decade. Moric Lutzmannsburg Alte Reben Blaufränkisch embodies the heritage and meticulous craftsmanship of its producer, offering a profound expression of the Burgenland terroir.

Gut Oggau Bertholdi Rot is a unique wine produced in Austria, specifically in the Burgenland region. Gut Oggau is known for its commitment to organic or biodynamic farming practices. The wine is crafted with great care and respect for the environment and the traditions of the region. This wine is crafted from Blaufränkisch grapes sourced from 60-year-old vines that grow in a single vineyard within the Gut Oggau estate. The vineyard's soil is characterized by limestone and gravel, which imparts distinctive characteristics to the wine. The winemaking process is meticulous and traditional. After hand-harvesting the grapes in small crates, they undergo partial destemming and spontaneous fermentation using indigenous yeasts. The wine is then aged for two years in large, used 500-liter barrels. Bertholdi Rot is known for being the most traditional and intense representative of the Gut Oggau wine family. It's described as a mature, full-bodied Blaufränkisch with a rich, spicy character and an irresistible earthy depth. This wine is complex, serious, and profound, fitting for a patriarch of the family. Notably, it is bottled without filtration, fining, or the addition of sulfur.
