Remanenz - Grosse Reserve

The Remanenz Große Reserve from Seegut Lentsch is a red wine that takes its name seriously: Remanenz — the lingering effect, the remaining — describes exactly what this wine leaves behind in the glass.

Seegut Lentsch is located on Lake Neusiedl in the Burgenland Seewinkel, one of the warmest and sunniest wine regions in Austria. The Pannonian climate with hot summers and cool nights ensures fully ripe grapes with a simultaneously lively structure — the foundation for a red wine with depth and poise. As a Grosse Reserve, this wine undergoes the longest maturation period in the cellar, typically aged in barriques or large wooden barrels.

In the glass, it reveals dark berry fruit — blackberry, black cherry — embedded in notes of cedar wood and a hint of tobacco. The body is full-bodied, the tannins are mature and velvety, and the finish is long and spicy with a subtle smoky note.

It is best served at 16–18 °C — with braised lamb shoulder, a hearty beef roast, or mature mountain cheese. It also cuts a fine figure on a quiet evening without any accompaniments.
