2016 Pittnauer Pitti
Pittnauer
The grapes are sourced from various top sites around Gols with younger vines and soils incorporating red pebbles, clay and limestone. Fermented with indigenous yeasts and matured for 12 months partly in used barriques and partly stainless steel tank. Bright and fresh nose of cherry, blackcurrant, aniseed and dried herbs. Medium- to light-bodied with redcurrant, blackberry and some lovely savoury earthy notes on the finish. Ripe but in no way heavy. Delicious, and fun. - Gabriel Soltys, CellarHand

Plum, new leather, cola, fennel seeds, a little spice. Medium-bodied, ample dark fruit but savoury with it, furry suede-like tannin, strawberry acidity, dark and slightly bitter in the aftertaste. Quirky. Fun with a bit of a frown.

2016 Pittnauer Pitti Blaufränkisch/Zweigelt
From the east of Austria (Burgenland) within spitting distance of Hungary, comes this blend of Austria’s two dominant red varieties.
Bright, medium dense crimson appearance. Fresh, cool aromatics of red and blue berry fruits front some “damp woodsy” backnotes.
The attack on entry is surprisingly shapely and lively, and leads to a medium weight plush mid palate full of bright red and darker berry fruits which finish long and are buttressed with integrated chalky tannins.
Those wanting drinkability akin to that of good Beaujolais but with a little more “grunt” would do well to tuck into this.
