The Gesellmann Bela Rex 2021 with 14.5% vol. in a 0.75-litre bottle is a powerful, striking red wine cuvée from Burgenland and is one of the Gesellmann winery's prestige wines. The wine is traditionally composed from the classic Bordeaux grape varieties Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, which find optimal ripening conditions in the warm, mineral-rich soils of central Burgenland. Selective hand-picking, precise vinification and careful ageing in wood give the Bela Rex its profound structure, aromatic complexity and characteristic elegance, for which the wine has been appreciated for years.


The 2021 vintage is dense, concentrated and finely balanced. The distinctive fruit character, juicy texture and elegant tannins combine to create a full-bodied, complex red wine with impressive Langs. The combination of noble wood spice, clear fruit and mineral core shows the signature of the winery and emphasises the special character of this cuvée. A top Burgenland wine with structure, expressiveness and Langs depth.

Tasting Note

The Bela Rex has a dark ruby red colour in the glass. The nose reveals subtle spices of precious wood with tobacco nuances, followed by black cherries and cassis. On the palate, the wine is powerful and complex, supported by velvety tannins and a finesse-rich acidity. Black forest berry confit, ripe heart cherry and fine minerality characterise the multi-layered impression. The finish is elegant, structured and long-lasting, with a harmonious interplay of fruit and flavour.

The Gesellmann Bela Rex 2021 goes particularly well with dark meat, game dishes, braised beef, roast beef, rack of lamb or hearty mushroom dishes. It also harmonises well with mature hard cheeses or Mediterranean herb flavours. Served at 16-18 °C, it unfolds its depth optimally and accompanies full-bodied dishes with an elegant, long-lasting structure.
