Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Warm wood and spicy flavors are the hallmark of this smooth, elegant Blaufränkisch. The ripe fruit flavors show black plums, dark figs, and cranberry tannins. The wood, polishing the rough edges of minerality, fits the texture well.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A soft, gentle, open wine that just lights on the palate. The texture is full, with acidity combining easily with pepper and green apple flavors. Screwcap.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
In Burgenland, the Welschriesling comes into its own in sweet wines. Here the acidity of the fruit, with its pineapple crispness, makes a great foil for the sweetness of the botrytis, with its dry honey flavor. The acidity comes back as the wine floats away on the palate.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is a big, friendly ripe wine, the fruits bursting out of the glass. It is fresh, juicy, full of red berries, the tannins having a walk-on part with all this fruit going on. The finish is fresh, just hinting at a barnyard character.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Ripe, creamy aromas introduce a deliciously full-bodied Grüner. It has freshness, but also soft apple flavors and a cream character, while its pepper and spice is prominent. The finish is clean, with green plums and apple skin tannins. Screwcap.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A ripe, toffee-dominated wine that has great richness, particularly from the creamy Chardonnay. Flavors of peaches, ripe pineapple and spicy caramel are enlivened by some finishing acidity. Worth aging for 3–4 years.
