Weingut Pittnauer "Pitt Nat" Rose

Blaufrankisch, Merlot, and Syrah. Whole bunch pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks with final fermentation in bottle. Hand disgorged and topped off with the same wine. Organic and completely sulphur free.

Creaminess on the nose has the peppery edge of just ripe red fruit, reminiscent of savory rose hip and red currant. There clearly is a little funk on the nose, but the light palate is a hedonistic, weightless moment of uncommon, creamy, fizzy lightness. The wine seems weightless, fresh and wonderfully red-fruited with its tender tartness. Frivolous perhaps, but delicious, light and dry, too.
