Very popular - currently out of stock.
This Blauburgunder Riserva Linticlarus from Tiefenbrunner Winery comes from selected hillside vineyards in Montan and Graun. The vines grow at elevations between 450 and 800 meters above sea level on sandy clay soils over Dolomite rock as well as calcareous clay soils of glacial moraine origin.
In the glass, it displays a ruby-red color with garnet reflections. Its fine fruity bouquet reveals aromas of forest berries and cherries. The grapes are harvested carefully by hand, with around 70% gently destemmed while the rest is placed into concrete tanks as whole clusters. After about 7 days of cold maceration, fermentation lasts around 21 days, followed by malolactic fermentation. The wine matures for 12 months in small oak barrels, 40% of them new, followed by another 6 months in large oak casks and finally one year in the bottle. On the palate, it is elegant, balanced and rounded, with a well-proportioned body and a long-lasting finish.
