What a fantastic Austrian red wine, this red Wien 2 from top winery Pfaffl! It's made with two grape varieties, Pinot Noir and Zweigelt, from a very old vineyard. The old vines have been planted for over 25 years in a "Flysch" subsoil, a local term for clay and sandstone. The vineyards of Herrenholz and Praschen for this Wien 2 are located on a very high plateau, and they are magnificent. From the top of the mountain, you have a magnificent view of the city of Vienna. In this climate, the grapes ripen slowly, and the growing season is uneventful, allowing the grapes to absorb all the benefits the surrounding area has to offer.

Completely hand-harvested for this Pfaffl Wien 2

After manual harvesting, the grapes are taken directly to the cellar where they are quickly crushed and pressed. Fermentation then follows, which is carried out under automatic temperature control at 28 degrees Celsius for 20 days in stainless steel tanks. Eighty percent is aged in steel tanks and 20 percent in used oak barrels. After three months, the wine is bottled in Bordeaux-colored bottles. The red wine Cuvée Wien.2 combines the soft fruit of a Zweigelt with the delicate elegance of a Pinot Noir. The sandy limestone soils of the vineyards, situated on a high plateau above Vienna, enhance the finesse and complexity, while the partial maturation in used barriques adds the finishing touch.

What does the Pfaffl Wien 2 taste like?

The result is a beautiful red wine, with refined aromas of black currant and cherry, along with hints of spice and a touch of fresh red flowers. Winemaker Roman Pfaffl expertly balances this red wine, and the palate offers a warm, initial burst of red and black fruit. On the back of the palate, we also detected nuances of spice, stewed strawberries, and a hint of cedar. This Wien 2 pairs perfectly with barbecue or grilled steak.
