Blaufränkisch from where it originated, the Slovenian part of Styria. A wine which remembers the noble Burgindian heritage of this grape. Cherries and Blackberries are balanced by a beautiful earthiness.

Vinification

The grapes are de-stemmed and fermented in open vat fermenter for 2 weeks with gentle extraction. The wine ages in in very old Slovenian oak barrels for 12 months before bottling without fining, filtration or any addition of SO2. 2015 was a great vintage, due to a long ripening season.
