Ageing in large, old oak ensures honest varietal expression of this classic Austrian grape that is becoming seen in the UK more often these days. An interesting nose of black pepper spice, earth and crunchy red fruit leads into a lively red fruit palate with firm tannins and a sprightly acidic backbone.
