The Kerschbaum Blaufränkisch 2023 comes from one of the most renowned red wine producers in Mittelburgenland, a region that is considered a classic Blaufränkisch terroir and offers ideal conditions for this grape variety. The selected grapes were fermented on the skins for 14 days, allowing the structure, colour intensity and varietal typicity to be optimally developed. The malolactic fermentation took place partly in wooden barrels, while the subsequent ageing took place in barriques that had been used several times and in large oval oak barrels. This combination supports the balance between fruit-driven clarity and a subtle, well-integrated woody flavour. The 2023 vintage is a modern, clear Blaufränkisch that authentically reflects the strengths of the grape variety - structure, flavour and elegance. The recommended serving temperature of 15 °C emphasises its fresh, accessible style.


The precise vinification, the careful selection of grapes and the differentiated use of wood result in a Blaufränkisch that is both versatile in culinary terms and convincing as a soloist. Central Burgenland is a region of origin for powerful, finely structured red wines, and its soils and Pannonian microclimate characterise the style of this wine in a special way. The Kerschbaum Blaufränkisch combines regional tradition, modern cellar technology and elegant lines to create a harmonious, versatile red wine that cuts an excellent figure both in a gastronomic context and for private enjoyment.

Tasting Note

Dark ruby-garnet colour in the glass with violet reflections and a delicate watery rim. Ripe cherry fruit, herbal notes, a hint of plum and fine orange zest on the nose. Juicy and elegant on the palate with a fine tannin structure, blackberry nuances, delicate salinity and red cherries. The finish is persistent, clearly structured and long-lasting.

This Blaufränkisch 2023 is an excellent accompaniment to pasta, lighter meat dishes such as veal, pork or poultry as well as grilled dishes, which benefit from its juicy structure. It also harmonises well with mature hard cheeses, which ideally complement its elegant tannin structure.
