Hannes Reeh Heideboden Cuvee Rot 2021 14% Vol. 1,5l

The Hannes Reeh Heideboden Cuvee Rot 2021 is a powerful yet elegantly structured Austrian red wine from Burgenland that impressively reflects the unique terroir of the Heideboden in Seewinkel. The cuvee is made up of 60% Zweigelt, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot - a combination that unites regional typicity with an international sense of style. The vines grow on a gravel soil with a sandy content, which ensures excellent drainage and minerality. Due to the warm, Pannonian climate with cool nights, the grapes develop intense aromas and a precise structure.

The grapes are harvested by hand before undergoing spontaneous fermentation, which gives the cuvee its natural authenticity. After a maceration period of around four weeks, the wine is matured in stainless steel tanks and partly in barriques, which gives the wine freshness as well as depth and complexity. With a screw cap, it retains its aromatic purity and drinking pleasure for years. The ageing potential extends to 2033, which underlines its exceptional substance and stability.
