Redmont 2017

 

With THIS WINE one is even allowed to use a common German-German adjective meaning ‘yummy’ that normally gets one laughed-at in Austria. The dark-fruit aromaticity and the wonderful core of sweet fruit make this wine simply irresistible.

  • site & Soil The name «Redmont» is a sort of a synonym for the south-facing slopes with the typical red gravel topsoils. These meagre soils yield wines of great structure, fine aromas and great cellaring potential.

  • fermentation 14 days spontaneous fermentation on the skins at 30–32°C, followed by malolactic fermentation
  • élevage 16 months in French oak barriques

  • acidtiy 5.3g/l

This wine pairs marvellously with game and dark meat dishes with powerful sauces. Its favourite date is lamb with rosemary.
