"The 2020 Blaufränkisch Ried Golser Ungerberg offers a coolish, dark, spicy, peppery, and toasty bouquet that is cooler than the Spiegel. On the palate, this is a lush and generous, full-bodied, and juicy Blaufränkisch with spicy tannins and a long, intense, saline, nervy and tensioned finish. 13.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domain in July 2022."

"This vineyard rises up above the northeastern tip of Lake Neusiedl, where this wine developed its potent green- and black-fig flavors along with a rigid structure, its tannins wrapping the fruit like a tight woolen jacket. Give it time in the cellar to mellow."

About The Winery
In 1991, at 22 years old, Paul Achs took the lead of the family winery in Gols, Austria, where his family had been working in the wine industry since 1684. Gols is a small winemaking village located in the Neusiedlersee district of Austria's Burgenland region, 60 km (37 miles) southeast of Vienna near the Hungarian border. Paul's roots are established in two key areas: the Heideboden and the Parndorfer Platte. The 25 hectares (61.8 acres) of vines are divided into 40 plots, each with individual potential. This wide distribution gives the winery a variety of soils and microclimates - ideal for creating exciting, authentic wines year after year. In 2006, The Paul Achs winery received biodynamic certification for their meticulous care and thoughtfulness in tending to their vines and winemaking process. Today, Paul believes a vital soil supports the ripening process of the grapes in a very positive way. His belief is that mindfulness and respect for nature create and preserve values.
