The Winkler-Hermaden Hermada Vulkanland Steiermark 2018 with 13% vol. in a 0.75-litre bottle is a red wine with a strong character from the south-eastern Styrian Vulkanland region, named after the historic Hermada hill in northern Italy. After the heavy fighting in 1917, Field Marshal Lieutenant Arthur Winkler was elevated to the nobility by Kaiser Karl I for his services and henceforth chose the name Winkler von Hermaden. To commemorate this place of destiny, the winery produces a wine that combines a sense of tradition and regional identity.


The cuvée consists of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Merlot and is matured in Kapfenstein oak, creating structure, depth and the finest spicy notes. The volcanic land with its mineral soils lends the wine additional tension and elegance. The 2018 vintage is particularly balanced and powerful: dark fruit, aromatic spice, juicy acidity and precise tannins characterise the profile. Thanks to its combination of origin, historical reference and precision craftsmanship, Hermada presents itself as an expressive, multi-layered red wine with Langs depth.

Tasting Note

A dense ruby red colour in the glass. The nose reveals aromas of cassis, dark berries, nettle, some eucalyptus and fine dark chocolate. On the palate, the wine is structured, fruity and flavoursome, supported by juicy acidity, ripe tannins and a balanced, elegant texture. The finish is powerful, harmonious and long-lasting, characterised by dark fruit and fine spice.

Acidity: 6.1 g/l

Residual sugar content: 1.1 g/l

The Hermada 2018 is an excellent accompaniment to game dishes, steaks, braised beef, grilled lamb or savoury mushroom dishes. It also harmonises with Mediterranean herb flavours, mature hard cheese or hearty ragouts. Served at 16-18 °C, it unfolds its depth perfectly and accompanies strong dishes with an elegant, long-lasting structure.
