Kollwentz 2018 Blaufränkisch Ried Setz

The single vineyard “Krapflried”, in common parlance plainly called “Setz”, was first mentioned in documents in 1570. It borders the Großhöflein vineyard sites in the direction of Kleinhöflein. The southeast facing “Setz” enjoys plenty of sunshine from early morning till late in the afternoon. This allows the Blaufränkisch grapes to fully ripen in this wind-protected site. Younger vintages should be opened or decanted a few hours before drinking.
