Tough to like this wine. I feel like I have a mouthful of dusty dirt. Where's the fruit? No change from my earlier note (but I was really wishing there would be).

Some fruit on the nose and initial palate that is quickly replaced by a long dusty road. I practically needed water afterwards my mouth seemed so dry! I get elegant and finesse (see back label) but dusty dusty dusty is not a substitute for the "unique Southern Burgenland terroir and Austrian freshness". Sorry dudes.

Dark ruby colour. Reductive at first, but better after aering. Nose of garden berries. Some vanilla or licorice. Good concentration. Tight and warm finish. Good lenght. More of a food wine of Blaufrankish. Save two or three years.

Dark ruby. Strawberry and raspberry on the nose with a savory, smokey, gamey, accent. Medium bodied. This reminds me of a Cru Beaujolais. Great value.
