Herzblut 2009. BF/CS/ME/ZW. 
With slightly above 100€/0.75lt this wine is one of the most expensive austrian red wines.
2x2 years new barriques (double oak)
Oak still very dominant, underlined with fine blackberry, cassis, plum, licorice, orange zest, some cherry. 
Fine tannin, fine acidity, oak also very dominant on the palate.
Drinking very fine now, but benefits from a few more years of bottle aging to achieve a better integration of oak. — 8 years ago
Had this in Germany with Norbert, bought at Bayer wine cellar. For €12.50 — 9 years ago
Orange. Tannin. Acid. Smells like bayer orange baby aspirin. — 13 years ago
Sehr würzig, ledrig, tabakig - fast als würden Cabernet/Merlot dem Blaufränkisch die Show stehlen. Dicht, kraftvoll, lang. Das Gegenteil von dem was man 2014 allgemein erwartet. Moderater Alkoholgehalt (13,0). Super ausbalanciert - Säure, Tannin, Alkohol, Körper in perfekter Harmonie, riesiges Reifepotenzial. — 7 years ago
Leichtes Burgunderstinkerl. trotz alter von 13 Jahren noch frisch und lebendig.
Noten von Himbeere und Eukalyptus, Waldboden. Feine Würzigkeit und Rauchigkeit, lebendige Säure, gute Länge. — 9 years ago
This is really nice and varietally correct. Dusty and a little smoky. Good fruit, bright acidity. — 10 years ago
Very good vintage. Medium to full body with strong raspberries taste and a bit pepper. Normal acidity. It was fantastic with small piece of medium rare venison. — 8 years ago
Spicy when chilled. When it becomes room temperature it has a more robust taste. Clean and nice. Had while dining at the Hotel Sacher Salzburg's Zirbelzimmer restaurant. — 9 years ago
Got this in Bayer wine cellar for 27€. Nose of beautiful terroir, dried fruits, berries, gentle touch of minerals. Fine body, not over dry, soft tannins finish. I rate this high for quality and price. Wish to find this in US. — 9 years ago
