(Prieler Blaufränkisch Ried Johanneshöhe) ($26.00) Boy, has this gotten good the past couple vintages. And this ’08 is exactly what you want to smell in a glass of Blaufränkisch (or “BF” as I prefer to call it), the polished silky benchmark; precise, specific, gushing but not sappy. How honorable to respect the beauty of the basic form! The world can never have too many such things.

Coming right into form just about 15 minutes after pulling the cork. A well made rounded out Blau, if not the most hedonistic or compelling version I have ever had. But very tasty.

Aromatics between a Pinot and cab franc. Had floral and violet components. Flavor - pretty high acidity, lighter in color, very restrained without loads of fruit.

My second encounter with Prieler and I realize that we will develop a longstanding friendship. Entry level Blaufränkisch at 11 euros. Great value for money. For those who are not familiar with the style, BF is in the same vain as a Valpollicella. This one is full of fruit, red berries and a grassiness that resembles Loire Cabernet Franc. Might be oaked, but if so the oak is elegantly hidden and contributes to the overall picture. Paired with a filet of lamb and risotto. Worked great.

Casa Sena Tasting, November 2011 (La Casa Sena retail shop, Santa Fe, NM): Different lot than prior bottle. Seemed more elegant. Cab Franc & Pinot characteristics. Earthy finish, mouth watering. Cherry, tobacco, eucalyptus, violet.

My first Blaufrankisch and very pleased. Bramble and earth and berries, great consistency throughout the bottle; v good balance of fruit acids and tannins. Had with pork belly; companions had with wiener schnitzel. Terrific food wine of high quality
