Leithaberg DAC rotBlaufränkisch Himmelfahrt 2019

The thousand-year-old vineyard meadow to the west of Rust was formed about 16 million years ago as a coral reef of the primordial sea. A shell limestone sediment and crystalline gneiss give the wine its very mineral, powerful and unique character. The sunny south-eastern slopes of the hill country around Rust are among the most traditional and best vineyards in Austria.

80% in large oak barrels and 20% in small oak barrels. Aged on the fine lees for 6 months.

A jewel from the Leithaberg and an exquisite companion to Pannonian cuisine such as stuffed Martin goose with napkin dumplings and warm cabbage salad.
