The Blaufränkisch classic from Stift Klosterneuburg Wine Estate is a particularly juicy wine which stands out by virtue of its finely fruity acidity and clearness. Deep ruby-red, fine blackberry and plum fragrances, good length.
On the variety and origins of this wine: Alongside Zweigelt and St. Laurent, Blaufränkisch is yet another classic Austrian red wine grape variety. The alluvial, gravely soil at the Monastery’s vineyards in Tattendorf – which has one of the best reputations among Austria’s red wine growing communities – offers perfect conditions for this variety. At 55 hectares, Tattendorf is also home to the Klosterneuburg Monastery Wine Estate’s largest vineyards.
