Reviews:

• Falstaff: Strong crimson garnet, violet reflections, broader edge brightening. Ripe cherry fruit, delicately like ringlets, candied orange zest, some figs, underlaid with berry confit. Juicy, tightly meshed, sweet fruit, red cherries and berries, well-integrated acid structure, fine tannins, roasted aromas on the finish, already well developed.

Producer Information

When Anton Bauer takes something on, he does so wholeheartedly. When he took over the winery from his parents in 1992, it had only 3.2 hectares of vines. The quality fanatic now cultivates around 35 hectares of vineyards in and around Feuersbrunn. Anton Bauer’s work is defined by the combination of deeply rooted commitment to tradition and openness for new mehtods.The vintner’s thoughts and actions have been visionary from beginning. Next to the classic Wagram grape varieties Grüner Veltliner, Riesling and Roter Veltliner, he also invested increased efforts in red wine production – something that initially met with scepticism. Despite this, his Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, and aptly namend “Cuvée Legendär” now count among Austria’s top red wines. The white wines are in the same league.
