Ried Ruster Umriss Blaufränkisch
Ried Ruster Umriss Blaufränkisch
Comparing two 2018 BF from two neighboring hills in Rust.
Frome limestone mixed with some clay, aged in large Slavonic oak for 9 months. Organic & biodynamic.
Fresh & inviting with dark cherry, mulberry, a touch of spice, dried orange zest & a herbal whiff.
On the palate this is nicely poised and quite elegant with polished tannins, cherry acidity and an uplifting herbal, slightly minty finish. Dark sweet cherries & damson plums fill the midpalate.
This is very nice with food, but also great for sipping solo.

Fruitforward, fairly light yet not without charm or character. Fresh blueberries and ripe plums + plum jam with a pinch of cloves and a fresh whiff of herby, mushroomy undergrowth. On the palate this shows excellent fruit quality with purity, polished, fine grained tannins and juicy acidity. Nice tension here. A lovely wine - with or w/o food.
