ABOUT THE WINE

The Gebrüder Nittnaus winery is located on the eastern shore of Lake Neusiedl, in the heart of Gols, one of Austria’s most renowned wine-producing regions. With over 300 years of family vineyard heritage and winemaking since 1986, the Nittnaus family now farms 57 hectares across 70 parcels, using certified organic viticulture. Under the leadership of the next generation, Andreas and Hans Michael Nittnaus, the estate continues to produce wines that honour tradition while embracing purity and finesse.

The 2018 Altenberg Reserve is a standout Blaufränkisch, Austria’s signature red grape, offering structure, minerality, and elegance in equal measure.


TASTING NOTES

This Blaufränkisch Reserve is refined and complex, with violet, blackberry, and a hint of wild herbs and tobacco from 12 months in French oak barriques. Medium-bodied with structured tannins, vibrant acidity, and a mineral core, it delivers layers of dark fruit, spice, and subtle earthiness. A poised and expressive wine with great ageing potential.


FOOD PAIRING

An ideal match for lighter red meats, grilled pork, or roast duck. Also excellent with hard cheeses like aged Gouda or Comté, or vegetarian dishes with roasted root vegetables and lentils.


FRIARWOOD SAYS

A superb example of organic Blaufränkisch, offering a perfect balance of depth and delicacy. If you’re looking to explore Austria’s top reds, this Reserve is the place to start.
