2021 Buchertberg Rot Blaufränkisch dry – Herrenhof Lamprecht – Styria

Single-vineyard wine

Origin

The Blaufränkisch "Buchertberg Rot" comes from the Buchertberg vineyard in Markt Hartmannsdorf. The south-southeast exposure and soils composed of calcareous sandstone, silt, and gravel lend the wine freshness, saline minerality, and a cool style. Here, Gottfried Lamprecht interprets Blaufränkisch as an elegant, terroir-driven red wine with tension.

Winemaking

Selective hand-harvesting and spontaneous fermentation with natural yeasts. Aged in traditional 600-liter Startin casks, followed by unfiltered bottling without fining. The goal is an authentic, unadulterated expression of the vineyard site.

Aroma and Taste

On the nose, blackberry, sour cherry, and fine spice, complemented by earthy nuances. On the palate, tight, focused, and cool, with lively acidity, prominent tannins, and saline minerality. The finish is long, precise, and characterized by herbal spice.

Food Pairings

Ideal with lamb, game, or braised beef. Also suitable with mushroom dishes or spicy vegetarian meals.

Vintage Characteristics in the Region

Conclusion

The 2021 Buchertberg Rot Blaufränkisch is a cool, precise, and mineral red wine with elegance, structure, and great tension. A Blaufränkisch with strong character, depth, and aging potential.
