    Vintage Description:

    Deep dark ruby. Cedar, black olives and cassis, soft notes of liquorice, ethereal nuances, multi-faceted, inviting bouquet. Juicy, complex, ripe black wild berries, powerful, pithy tannins, mineral and taut, fine acidity, cherries on the finish. (Peter Moser - Falstaff, April 21, 2023)

    wine title:

    Batonnage

    wine description:

    Bâtonnage, the process of stirring the lees in winemaking, serves as a fitting moniker for a group of vinous revolutionaries. It all started during a legendary blind tasting among the five friends Markus Altenburger, Florian Gayer, Gerhard Kracher, Erich Scheiblhofer, and Christian Tschida in 2000. That night, the "Club Batonnage" was born. This highly exclusive, rare, and somewhat provocative wine is bottled in unique containers and sealed with wax, instantly winning gold at the International Wine Challenge in London. Although larger quantities could be produced in strong years, each vintage is limited to a maximum of 12 barriques.
