Rosé

From the hilly southern region of Styria, possibly now better known for its vibrant Sauvignon Blancs, was also once well known for its pink Schilcher. This is made with the local variety Wildbacher, historically regarded as a gut-strangling acidic wine. Stefan Langmann has managed to show what old vines in the right hot sunny vineyard can achieve. Copper pink with incredibly concentrated fruit aromas. On the palate there is opulent dark cherries, an almost salty chewiness, dark, soft, velvety cherry fruit, sloes and damsons. Silky and refined. Gorgeous.
