Hillinger Small Hill Red 2022 13% ABV 1.5 litres in a wooden crate online kaufen

The Hillinger Small Hill Red 2022 is a wonderfully balanced and smooth red wine cuvée from Burgenland, which impressively bears the hallmark of the renowned Austrian winemaker Leo Hillinger. This carefully crafted blend consists of 50% Merlot, 25% Pinot Noir and 25% St. Laurent – three grape varieties that complement one another in perfect harmony, lending the wine elegance, structure and depth.


The grapes come from the finest Lager around Jois in northern Burgenland, where the Pannonian climate, with its warm days and cool nights, provides ideal ripening conditions. Following fermentation in stainless steel tanks, a small proportion (around 10 per cent) is aged in used barrique barrels to give the wine additional roundness and subtle toasted aromas. The result is a dry, velvety red wine with youthful fruit, soft tannins and a harmonious balance. The Hillinger Small Hill Red 2022 is a wine that delights with its versatility and pairs wonderfully with almost any dish.

Tasting Note

In the glass, the Small Hill Red displays a deep ruby red colour with violet highlights. On the nose, aromas of dark berries, such as blackberries and black cherries, unfold, accompanied by subtle notes of chocolate and delicate spice in the background. On the palate, it is soft, round and full-bodied, with juicy fruit, a pleasant structure and a harmonious finish.
