Blaufränkisch Creitzer Reserve - Weingut Gesellmann

The barrel-aged Blaufränkisch Creitzer Reserve from the wine-growing region of Burgenland reveals itself in the glass in dense purple. Swiveling the glass, this red wine reveals a high viscosity, which shows in church windows at the edge of the glass. This single varietal Austrian wine presents wonderfully expressive notes of wild berry jam, mulberries, grapefruit and black cherries in the glass. These are joined by hints of cocoa bean, Mediterranean herbs and juniper.

This wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor. It was bottled with exceptionally little residual sugar. As you would expect from a top wine, this Austrian naturally enraptures with the finest balance despite all its dryness. Taste does not necessarily need a lot of sugar. On the palate, the texture of this punchy red wine is wonderfully fleshy and dense. In the finish, this red wine from the wine-growing region of Burgenland finally inspires with beautiful length. There are again hints of blueberry and plum.

Vinification of the Blaufränkisch Creitzer Reserve by Weingut Gesellmann

The basis for the powerful Blaufränkisch Creitzer Reserve from Burgenland are grapes from the grape variety Blaufränkisch. After the grape harvest, the grapes are immediately taken to the press house. Here they are selected and carefully broken up. This is followed by fermentation in small wood at controlled temperatures. After the completion of fermentation, the Blaufränkisch Creitzer Reserve is aged for another 17 months in oak barrels.
