2006 Blaufränkisch trocken Terroir, Burgenland, Austria

Translate to English Fester, deutlich holzwürziger Duft nach schwarzen Beeren, Kirschen und grünem Paprika mit leicht kräuterigen und pfeffrigen Aromen. Fest und kräftig im Mund, geschliffene, herbe, dunkle Frucht, wieder Paprika und viel Holz, rauchige und erdige Noten, präsentes, teils etwas trocknendes Tannin, gute Nachhaltigkeit, bei aller Kraft auch kühle Noten, bleibt nur etwas gesichtslos, zeigt weder Herkunft noch besonders viel Sorte, sehr guter Abgang.

Editor note: Prominent roasted green bell peppers on the nose, more green vegetal notes, some pulses, black berries, earthy notes and peppery traces, oak. Polished juicy fruit on the palate, very fine tannins, light smoky notes, bell peppers and some mint as well as other herbaceous notes, some pepper and cassis, touch of red berries, oak fairly well integrated, hint of sugar candy, good persistence, full-bodied, not much varietal character, but very meticulously made, very good finish.
