A full-bodied wine, layering delicious apricot and pear fruits with lemon zest and an apple skin texture. With a great bite of acidity, this is a ripe yet also mineral wine. Screwcap.

With its pear and apricot fruits, this has a delicious full-bodied character, and the the grapefruit acidity keeps it fresh. Screwcap.

This concentrated effort boasts rich, ripe yellow-fruit and citrus flavors as well as fine acidity. It is packed with fruit, but it also has a firm, steely, nervy texture. It should be aged for 2–3 years, maybe more, for maximum effect.

An interesting blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir and St Laurent, the wine has good intensity of flavor, with dense tannins and a solid structure. It is just showing a smoky flavor to go with the juicy black fruit. Age for 2–3 years. Screwcap.

A powerful, spicy and wood-aged wine, this is opulent, rounded, generous. The weight does overpower some Grüner character, although there is a pepper edge as a reminder.

A smooth and rich wine, this has weight and concentration. At the same time, it has an attractive, light-hearted feel that’s poised and elegant. The wine could age for a few years. Screwcap.

A pepper- and spice-dominated wine, this has a background of citrus and green plum flavors. The palate is textured and full. The Rotenpüllen is made up of glacial deposits.

There’s pretty much every red variety in the Pratsch vineyard in this blended wine. The result is ripe and smooth, the tannins behind the black fruits and wood flavors. It is full of ripe, juicy sweet fruits, spiced with final light acidity.
