Description

Red Wine: 2016 | Weingut Heinrich | Gabarinza

Cherry red in the glass. The aromas on the nose are reminiscent of moss, forest soil and autumn leaves. On the palate it is strong and full-bodied, with itself at its best. Long lasting in the finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Enthusiast: A touch of reduction still obscures the cherry and plum notes on the nose. The palate gives them more room and presents those fruits in a lovely firm frame that borrows from graphite, smoke and tar to lend backbone and structure. Intense, brilliant freshness seems to illuminate the purity of fruit even more. Lovely, structured, firm and dry. Drink 2022–2035.

• Falstaff: Dark ruby ​​garnet, violet reflections, delicate rim lightening. Fresh heart cherries, subtle precious wood spice, nuances of blackberries, mineral touch, delicate herbs. Juicy, good complexity, tightly meshed, red berry nuances, fine, supporting tannins, salty and fresh, sticks, has potential for development.

Producer Information

Weingut Heinrich is a wine producer based in the village of Gols, at the northeastern end of the Neusiedlersee lake in the Burgenland region of southeastern Austria. The winery produces a range of wines from local grapes made with minimal intervention in the winemaking process and many cuvées remain on skins for exended periods. The estate practices biodynamic viticulture and grows and produces a range of grape varieties including Blaufränkisch, Grauer Burgunder, Roter Traminer and Weissburgunder as well as Chardonnay, Zweigelt, St. Laurent and Pinot Noir. In the winery, many of the white wines are fermented (and macerated) in skins, with maceration times varying between wines. Many wines are cellar-aged in wooden oak barrels of varying capacity. A range of labels and wines are produced, with both single-varietal and blended wines released by the estate. Most bear the Burgenland indicator although some top cuvées (including the single-vineyard Edelgraben and Alter Berg Blaufränkisch wines) are produced under the Leithaberg appellation.
