Heinrich Blaufraenkisch Burgenland 2023 13% Vol. 0,75l

The Heinrich winery in Deutschkreutz has been under the dedicated management of Silvia Heinrich since 2010, who is passionate about continuing the wine tradition of the region. With 38 hectares of vineyards, the focus is clearly on the royal grape variety Blaufraenkisch, which accounts for 70% of the vineyard area. The grapes come from first-class vineyards such as Goldberg, Hochberg, Siglos and Fabian, which are known for their outstanding quality. The estate's wines enjoy international popularity and are exported to numerous countries, including Belgium, China, Germany, the USA and many other markets.

This Heinrich Blaufraenkisch represents the leading variety of Mittelburgenland. The grapes for this red wine grow on calcareous clay soils in Burgenland, which offer ideal conditions for cultivation. After selective hand-picking, the wine undergoes controlled mash fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The maceration period lasts 10 days before the wine is pressed and undergoes malolactic fermentation. The Blaufraenkisch then matures for six months in stainless steel tanks and large oak barrels to further develop its structure and aromas.

With a storage potential of 4 to 6 years, the wine not only offers a good shelf life and development potential, but also reliable preservation of quality and freshness thanks to the screw cap.
