<\/td>\nWine Enthusiast: Roger Voss<\/td>\n90 Prieler 2008 Blaufr\u00e4nkisch (Leithaberg)
\nThe initial impression is of black fruit, chocolate and coffee flavours. These delicious tastes are supported by its intense tannins and juicy acidity. Age this elegant Blaufr\u00e4nkisch for another two years. Imported by Michael Skurnik.<\/td>\n		\u00a02011<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\nThe Independent: Anthony Rose<\/td>\n......If the Gr\u00fcners were an eye-opener, they loved the reds, never having encountered the blaufr\u00e4nkish, St Laurent or zweigelt grapes before. We all loved the bright, peppery fruit of the 2008 Prieler Blaufr\u00e4nkish Leithaberg....<\/td>\n\u00a02011<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

.............But the grape variety that is probably most likely to put Austrian reds on the map is Blaufr\u00e4nkisch, known as K\u00e9kfrankos over the border in Hungary, and Lemberger in southern Germany and Washington state. It has the most attractive, and currently fashionable, combination of medium rather than full body, a refreshing aroma, and the ability to transmit quite subtle differences in terroir with precision - in Austrian anyway. The\u00a0greatest concentration of fascinating Blaufr\u00e4nkisch<\/b>\u00a0is in Burgenland, with the wine produced in\u00a0Leithaberg<\/b>\u00a0on the western shore of the Neusiedlersee being so distinctively mineral-soaked that it has earned its own special appellation.<\/p>\n

Prieler Blaufr\u00e4nkisch 2008 Leithaberg<\/b>\u00a017 Drink 2011-2017
\nLeithaberg is one of the DACs. Haunting nose with real depth and intensity. Limestone and minerally and chewy. Lots to chew on here! Together.
\nBeginning, middle and end. As much terroir as in Achleiten! 13% Vol.<\/td>\n
