Judith Beck 2006 Altenberg Blaufränkisch (Burgenland)
-
$60
This is Judith Beck’s flagship wine, a single vineyard Blaufränkisch, firmly tannic, solid, chunky, but still keeping a wonderfully perfumed character. The fruit is very pure, black berry juice dominant, along with acidity. Impressive and worth aging.

Judith Beck 2006 Pannobile Red (Burgenland)
- Cellar Selection
- Online Exclusive
-
$56
This classic Austrian red wine blend, a specialty of the Gols region north of the Neusiedlersee, is here shown at its best. Peel away its tight, mineral outer shell, and the wine inside shows richly dark tannins, juicy fruit and an appealing red and green pepper vitality that contrasts freshness with the serious structure. Age for 3-4 years.
