IRO meisterwerk 2023 14% Vol. 0,75l

The Markus IRO winery is located in Gols, a traditional wine-growing region, and cultivates around 20 hectares of first-class vineyards. Around 30% of the vines are used for white wines, while 70% are used for red wines. The quality of IRO wines is favored by Pannonian and continental influences, which bring high humidity and low rainfall. The soils of the vineyards consist of a mixture of limestone, gravel, clay and sand, which gives the wines their special minerality.

IRO Meisterwerk is an exclusive cuvee made from the noble grape varieties Zweigelt, Cabernet Franc and Merlot, whose grapes thrive on nutrient-rich Danube gravel and fertile black soil. The grapes are carefully harvested by hand and fermented on the skins for 21 days to extract the intense aromas and tannins in the best possible way. The malolactic fermentation takes place in new French barriques, in which the wine then matures for 12 months.

After ageing, the wine is bottled and sealed with natural cork to preserve its longevity. With an impressive ageing potential until 2033, the Iro Meisterwerk offers a promise of enjoyment for connoisseurs who appreciate a multi-faceted and elegant red wine.
