This Blaufränkisch from Uwe Schiefer's Ried Reihburg is an impressive representation of the powerful and characterful wines for which this winemaker is known. The wine comes from a special location, the Ried Reihburg, which indicates a unique terroir that gives the wine a special complexity.

The wine presents itself in a deep, dark ruby ​​red color, which already indicates its concentration and density.

Red wine from Uwe Schiefer with a wide variety of aromas

The nose is characterized by an intense variety of aromas. Notes of dark berries such as black cherries and blackberries mix with spicy nuances of black pepper, herbs and a subtle mineral undertone.

On the palate, the Blaufränkisch Ried Reihburg unfolds with a powerful structure. Juicy fruit aromas continue and are accompanied by elegant spicy notes. The tannins are firm but well integrated, and the lively acidity gives the wine freshness and longevity. The finish is long-lasting and shows a remarkable balance between fruit, spices and the characteristic mineral note.

On the nose, the Reihburg 2017 begins dense and dark, with lots of spice and tightly woven fruit, concentrated and massive, but also juicy and lively, as always there is no wood to be felt and the wine changes rapidly with air, eucalyptus, blackberry, plus mint and spruce needles, remaining very compact and surprisingly cool for the ripe year. On the palate with a delicate beginning, then the Reihburg becomes taut and the fresh acidity comes through, lively and incredibly tightly woven, the finest tannin and already accessible, firm body with black tea and blackberry again.
