Kapitel I Red Blend

Wildair part 2: our lone red of the bday evening. An Austrian red, pinot noir, wild & embracing. Jenny & Francois importer

Still a little baby but just so good from Austria’s best!

Light, fruity, and earthy cab franc blend. I’d be more into it for a lower price, but nice.

Delicious. Funky but easy to drink with some blueberry and red dried fruit (maybe).

👌👌👌👌

violets, black pepper, and funk. I'm into this, but it's young and tight in places and I think it needs time.

I've been on the hunt for this for a while now, and I'm happy to finally get some in my glass. The juicy cab franc with its spicy and peppery undertones does take in a Loire direction, but then the zweigelt adds a different sort of funk that pushes it into new territory. A lot going on here for such a quaffable wine, and it comes across as dynamic, alive and idiosyncratic. It also pushes all my happy buttons. Yum. Holla @Phil Ashton!

Really good stuff. Reminds me of some funky Loire reds. Blaufrankish, Cab Franc, and Cab Sav. Dark fruit, pepper, herbs, cedar, gravel, and purple flowers. As it opened up it became more and more savoury.

Austrian case bottle 12. A rich, dark blaufrankisch. No sulfur. Very fresh. Good stuff though the finish was a tad short

feral cat, smoke, flint, civet sh!t, foraged froot, effervescent mist, industrial scale barnyard, dark tracks that go on for miles……
