Weingut Moric,
Ready, but will keep,
Only a few hundred cases were made by Roland of this 'Alte Reben' (Old Vine) wine from the Mittel Burgenland village of Lutzmannsburg; a hot spot for Blaufrankisch on account of its schistous soils.
The net effect is a richly succulent, full, decadent wine, more in the Bonnes Mare camp on account of its lush, velvety tones and lifted raspberry/brambly 'coulis' perfume, that's been sensitively aged in 1500 litre barrels. It's totally interwoven, compact with great poise and direction; a faithful interpretation of its provenance. Good for 10/15 years at least, but the ripenesss of the 2009 vintage makes it hard to resist now; best to try a bottle and see where you go from there!

The Blaufränkisch grape thrives on the clay and fossil rich soils of Burgenland in Austria. It reminds slightly of the Nebbiolos of Piedmont, with their grace and guile, and it is indeed a great alternative to Nebbiolo, Pinot Noir, or Syrah.
