CARNUNTUM | ÖSTERREICH
Redmont 2018
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.

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