HILLINGER HILL1 BURGENLAND

50% Merlot, 25% Blaufränkisch, 25% Zweigelt  The first top wine that left the Leo HILLINGER winery was named HILL1. The blend of Merlot, Blaufränkisch and Zweigelt is garnet red with a brick-colored rim in the glass. A variety of aromas speaks from the nose: dark fruits, black currants, cherries and blueberries, surrounded by a delicate balsamic and black tea tone, which gives the wine an earthy scent. These earthy aromas continue on the palate, where the wine is dry, with a pleasantly supportive acidity and full-bodied tannins. Tea and balsamic aromas as well as the fruit tones of currant are also evident in the taste. The long finish keeps perfect balance.
