Discover the enigmatic taste of the Krutzler Perwolff Blaufränkisch 2020, an exquisite wine from one of Austria's esteemed winemakers, Reinhold Krutzler, who operates out of Burgenland's Eisenberg region. Krutzler applies meticulous traditional methods to craft this exquisite wine, combining staunch attention to detail in the vineyards and minimalist intervention in the cellar. It embodies the uniqueness of southern Burgenland’s heavy iron soil and perfectly captures the intensity of the Blaufränkisch grape.

This wine rests in 500-litre oak barrels for 20 months, giving it a harmonious balance between ripe fruit flavours and complex spice undertones. Its deep ruby-red colour and plummy aroma will lure you in, followed by a structured palate with elegant, round tannins, and a lingering finish. A thrilling exponent from a glorious vintage, the Krutzler Perwolff Blaufränkisch 2020 is a testament to the passion and expertise of Krutzler Estate. An unforgettable experience in every sip.

The Laurenz V. Kremstal Gruner Veltliner Singing 2020 is an exquisite manifestation of Austrian winemaking.

Ethically sourced and sustainably produced, Laurenz V's focus on single varietal wines ensures the authenticity of expression and character in every bottle. As such, the Laurenz V.

The Blaufränkisch Burgenland 2020 Lutzmannsburg Alte Reben comes from the oldest vines in Lutzmannsburg, which includes not only the three crus that had been singled out in 2019 but also other crus here that are too small to market them separately. This wine delivers all the ripeness, fruit intensity and concentration that Moric has been known for for almost 20 years. The wine is less precise or transparent compared to the crus, but it's dense and complex on the nose (and palate), which is ethereal and spicy and immediately begs for a decanter. Here, the wine is rich, textured and elegant, unfolding its greatness only on the finish that leaves the concentration and power of the first palate for purity, mineral freshness and endless salinity. Tannins, acidity and phenolics as well as body and concentration are in great balance here, yet at this early stage, the wine needs a lot of space and time to breathe and reveal its secrets step by step. This is definitely a wine to cellar for years, just like Clos Nouveau Bourgueil from Gauthier. That means this old-vines Lutzmannsburger may reach an even greater drinking experience in 10 years. I wouldn't miss it. 13.5% stated alcohol. Tasted in Lech in December 2022.

An extremely subtle gruner veltliner with so much herbal complexity and mountain freshness. Ripe and racy, with so much mineral energy. Very long and precise finish that's neatly supported by the very fine tannins. From a high-altitude vineyard planted in 1979 with more than 100 clones. Drink or hold.

Superbly cool, restrained and refined, this austere, beautiful dry riesling is a slow-burn masterpiece that's only just beginning to reveal its complex white-peach, white-tea, wild-herb and dark-berry character. Super-long and mineral finish. Drink or hold.
