Heinrich Salzberg 2017 13,5% Vol. 0,75l

The Weingut Heinrich is located in Gols in Burgenland. It is under the management of Gernot and Heike Heinrich. A great wine is only made when the vines feel good. The family vineyards are located in Purbach, Breitenbrunn, Winden, Jois, Neusiedl am See, Weiden, Gold, Mönchhof and Podersdorf. The numerous hours of sunshine around Lake Neusiedl allow the grapes to develop fully and reflect this intensity in the taste. The red wine was named after the excellent south-facing slope of the same name, which is situated directly above our winery. The soil of this slope ranges from clayey-silty to chalky and sandy-scaly. This combination allows the Bläufränkisch and Merlot to mature perfectly. The wine was aged for 30 months in 500 l oak barrels.Tasting notes:Dark covering ruby red in the glass. In the nose a strong aroma of dark berries, very dense, material and fleshy. On the palate powerful and full, soft and pleasant tannins. A sublime red wine with a strong acid bow. Long lasting in the finish. Grape varieties: 50% Merlot and 50% Blaufränkisch. Vinification: Double barrique. Soil: gravel, clay, lime. Acidity: 5,5 g/l. Residual sugar: 1.0 g/l. Closure: Natural cork. Drinking temperature: 18-19°C. The red wine goes very well with dishes with lamb and beef.
