Gut Oggau, 'Atanasius' 2023

Place: Burgenland, Austria

Grape: Blaufränkisch + Zweigelt

Vibe: Spicy

This vintage is the cleanest and most refined in recent memory. A beautifully piquant red blend, spicy and full of juicy berry fruit with a solid core of minerality and an umami-esque, meaty finish. Can be taken lightly or can be taken seriously. The choice is yours. I dare you not to like this, it's essentially impossible. That's one good-looking guy on the bottle, too. ABV: 11.5%
