Hillinger Blaufraenkisch is a dry red wine that presents the traditional Blaufraenkisch grape variety in all its elegance. Vinification takes place through careful mash fermentation in steel tanks, which intensively brings out the typical varietal aromas. After fermentation, the wine matures for 12 months in wooden barrels, whereby a third of the barrels have already been used to ensure a balance between fruit and wood notes.

The Hillinger Blaufraenkisch is then bottled with a screw cap. With a storage potential of 2 to 4 years, this red wine offers pure enjoyment.
