Sankt Laurent 2017 - Glatzer

From the Austrian wine-growing region Carnuntum comes the vine variety pure, powerful Sankt Laurent from Glatzer.

This wine presents itself in a deep cherry red with violet reflections in the glass. The fragrant bouquet caresses the nose with a fruity bouquet - juicy cherry merges with dark berries (blackberry, blueberry and black currant) and fine nuances of spicy oak. This Austrian red wine convinces the palate with good fullness and spicy fruit - especially sour cherries come to the fore -. The wonderfully fleshy texture is enveloped by a powerful body and accompanied by an elegant and pleasantly long finish.

Vinification of the Glatzer St. Laurent

The Sankt Laurent grapes for this red wine come from different locations in the Carnuntum. At optimal ripeness, the berries are harvested and immediately brought to the wine cellar of Glatzer. There the mash is first fermented in stainless steel tanks. This wine then remains on the mash for 2 weeks - the marc cake is regularly flooded. After the maceration period, this red wine is pressed and undergoes biological acid decomposition. So that this wine can harmoniously round off, it is matured for 12 months in used barriques.
