Schiefer Blaufränkisch Burgenland 2017

Image ~ March 5, 2021 ~ Zoltán Németi
Austrian Blaufrankisch seems to be bottled mostly in Bordeaux bottles. That might be an indication of the wine style, so for my recent order (from Weinshop24) I rather looked for Burgundy shaped bottles – and in the case of this entry level red from Schiefer it worked out quite well I would say.

Cool climate Kékfrankos: Bolyki “az Óperencián innen” 2016

Image ~ March 13, 2020April 5, 2020 ~ Zoltán Németi

Bolyki is one of the most well known producers in Eger, and this is their special edition Kékfrankos, available only at cellar door. I would not be surprised if it would sell off quickly, just because of that pretty label. Continue reading →
