Autumn Austrian Red Wines
Autumn Austrian Red Wines
It has now officially gotten cold in New York which means it is time to move towards smooth, soulful, spicy reds. While my mind goes to Blaufränkisch first, many Austrian red wines fit the bill here. I find the reds from Austria to be some of the most versatile, from fresh, light, and juicy, to deeply spiced and bold. Even with the same grape from the same winemaker you can see two very distinct styles of wine. There is something here for everyone! Today I have compiled a really fun selection of wines that show the range of not only Blaufränkisch, but Austrian red wines as a whole. Temperatures aside, these are incredibly food friendly wines, especially alongside the traditional Thanksgiving meal. Now through the weekend get 10% off when you purchase 6+ bottles from this collection!
