Glatzer Carnuntum - Blaufrankisch

The 2019 Blaufrankisch from Austria by Walter Glatzer is a real standout! Glatzer uses gentle grape - pressing and low - temperature fermentation. This wine has a rich, deep crimson color. It offers a complex yet accessible taste. You'll detect lovely aromas of black and blue fruits, complemented by flavors of black tea, gingerbread spice, and mulberries. The finish has a delightful minerality. It pairs perfectly with chicken in a red wine sauce or a Thai cucumber salad.

To enjoy this 2019 Blaufrankisch wine, first, let it breathe for about 15 - 30 minutes after opening. This will enhance its aroma and flavor. Pour it into a wide - rimmed wine glass to fully appreciate its scents. You can serve it at a slightly chilled temperature, around 55 - 60°F. When it comes to food pairing, as mentioned, it goes great with chicken in a red wine sauce or a Thai cucumber salad. Keep the wine in a cool, dark place when not in use. Avoid storing it in direct sunlight or near a heat source. If you have any leftovers, cork the bottle tightly and store it in the fridge. It should stay good for a couple of days.
