Site
The single vineyard Hochschopf is located 300 m above sea level with a beautiful view overlooking the Danube river. The soil consists of a thin limestone conglomerate which was deposited by the ancient Traisen River around 15 million years ago.
Vinification
Selection of the best physiological ripe grapes; crushed; cold maceration for 2 days; fermentation in stainless steel, after fermentation maceration for 1 week; pressed; aged for 9 months in 500 liter oak barrels.
Tasting notes
dark ruby colour with an intensive violet hue, in the nose explosive cassis and toasty aromas underpinned with spicy notes. Voluminous on the pallet thanks to the firm, typical tannin structure of this grape variety. Spicy and long finish.
Serving suggestion
goes very well with any kind of red meat; good to Italian food as Pizza and Pasta.
