Rich and ripe fruited damson gives depth on the nose and fleshiness on the palate. There some lighter flavours towards the back bilberry and hint of bramble and they refresh and lift the flavours on the finish. 2014-20 Tasted Feb 2014 Rating: 93 Derek Smedley MW, www.dereksmedleymw.co.uk (Mar 2014)

Nittnaus

Hans Nittnaus was introduced to us by Bert Salomon, and we love his red wines. No attempt here to make international wines from foreign grape varieties, which is not what we were looking for from Austria. These are indigenous wines reflecting the 'terroir' of the region. He is undoubtedly a supremely fine red wine maker, and is now following biodynamic practices which will lead to official certification from the 2007 vintage.
