Weninger Franz Plays With Szurke & Feher MMXVIII

Franz Weninger farms certified biodynamic vineyards on both sides of the Burgenland border, in Austria and Hungary. Building on his father's organic work in Hungary during the 1980s, Franz sees organic farming as just the beginning with biodynamics as the actual best practice. Since returning to the family winery in 1999, he has deepened their commitment to soil health and tradition, replanting vineyards with native varieties while preserving older plantings of international grapes. This skin-contact co-ferment of Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, and Pinot Noir reflects that philosophy. With a hue between orange and pale pink, the wine opens up with aromas of plum, violet, and grapefruit and lead to slightly effervescent flavors of lychee, pomegranate, and pink grapefruit with bright acidity, easy tannins, and a savory finish. Pairs beautifully with chicken tajine, zucchini noodle casserole, or fruit salad trifle.

This wine is produced by Weninger Franz in the Burgenland region of Austria. Burgenland is known for its unique climate and soil, which contribute to the distinct quality of Weninger Franz's wines.
