Blauburger

The Blauburger is a variety that was bred in Austria in 1923 and is nowadays mainly grown in the Weinviertel. The typical characteristic is dark, rich and with a high extract which makes it suitable for aging in oak barrels and a good bottle aging.

Characteristic: This rather undemanding variety ripens early, is especially suited for cooler microclimates, and is a versatile and dependable blending partner.

Its intense, dark color is favored together with paler varieties. The bouquet is rather neutral displaying discreet berry fruit and while flavorful, the variety displays litte tannin content. br>
