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.
