Blaufränkisch Ungerberg QW Burgenland 0.75L

The Ungerberg is one of the most renowned single vineyards in Burgenland — a south-southwest exposed hillside that gives the Blaufränkisch the warmth and ripeness this grape variety needs to unfold its full spectrum. Weingut Paul Achs is one of the defining addresses on Lake Neusiedl, manages its vineyards organically, and has specialized in varietal, site-typical wines.

In the glass, this Blaufränkisch shows dark berry fruit — blackberry, black cherry — with a spicy undertone of black pepper and violets, plus a fine mineral vein that gives the site its character. The tannins are present but well-integrated, the acidity gives the wine backbone and freshness, the finish is long and slightly earthy.

Goes well with braised beef, game goulash, or ripe mountain cheese. Serving temperature: 16–18 °C.
