Description

A vibrant ruby red with hints of purple at the rim. The nose reveals inviting aromas of red and black fruits, layered with subtle spice and a touch of dried herbs. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied and lively, showing bright cherry and cassis flavours supported by fine, supple tannins. A gentle earthiness adds depth, leading to a fresh, peppery finish. Elegant and approachable now, yet balanced enough to develop further complexity with short-term cellaring.

Pitnauer

Just 30 minutes from Vienna's city center and 10 minutes from the international airport, the Carnuntum wine-growing region stretches east of Vienna to the Slovakian border. At 910 hectares (2% of Austria's vineyard area), it is one of the smallest wine-growing regions. The Pitnauer family's vineyards (22 hectares in total) are located on gentle slopes in the surrounding Arbesthal hills around Göttlesbrunn.
