Blaufränkisch
Rosé wine
Rosé à la Christian Tschida - the direct 1:1 expression of unique terroir from the highest and coolest parts of the hill. Blaufränkisch from the chalkiest and most limestone-rich plots, picked on 5 different harvest days in order to depict the whole aromatic spectrum of this varietal. This creates a rosé as the purest expression of this ultimate soil type, as straight forward and clear as it can be from red grapes. At zero maceration, the sheer intensity of texture, grip and color is the multi-sensoric proof of the highly concentrated aromatic ripeness outstanding terroir naturally can produce. Cut free from the textural amplification and added layers that would come with maceration, it gives space to showcase an aromatic precision and barrenness that equals the character of the demanding mineral soil it grows on. The result: a wine, as sharp as an arrow-straight laser with plenty of floral spice, delicate layered fruit and the grace of an intensely pink-hued white. Precise and with great finesse and grandezza. This is a concept Christian will continue to deepen and evolve in the future.
