Pala Blaufränkisch
This 2007 was purchased when Uwe was in DC years ago, pouring samples at Peter Wygandt's store. It is labelled as "Vörösbor Vaszkeresztes Vashgey" on the front label and Sudbergenland on the back.
This poured w a surprisingly deep, ruddy purple. Aromas are complex with a concentrated/desicated dark berry fruit note and some savory, earthy, tertiary bottle depth. Tannins are resolved in this medium bodied wine. It is deeper and more concentrated than I remembered.

A new style and grape for me. But really like it. Like a cross btw Pinot noir and a spicy zin. A well balanced pretty wine. But has complexity and an edge. Light but still has richness and depth. Long finish. Paid around $35.
