Mt Bera Amphitheatre Blaufränkisch 2024

The trademark aromas of cobalt flowers are transferred right to the palate in an array of blueberry syrup, menthol, Assam tea leaf and borscht. A spice race of star anise that hands over to long pepper, that passes to bitter chocolate. In a relay of punchy wild bush herbs, rounded blue fruit and memorable long stretches of acidity. This is a real ease of drinking pleasure here, soft tannins with jubey fruit highlights. Where some Blaufränkisch can appear harsh and astringent in youth this is quite the opposite. A slight chill in summer or served beside pot stickers and game night. This is a good time.
