Gesellmann Organic Opus Eximium No 34 Magnum 2021

The new 2021 vintage marks 34 years of the Opus Eximium, the benchmark wine at Albert Gesellmann. This popular red wine cuvée is a fixed star in the red wine sky and consists of Blaufränkisch, Zweigelt and a little St. Laurent. Matured for 18 months in small used barriques and then aged for a further 3 months in large wooden barrels after blending. Now it is ready to show off its full potential in the glass.

The delicately smoky, spicy flavour of ripe blackberries and a fine touch of nougat on the nose. On the palate you get what the nose promises: juicy, ripe cherries with fine tannins and fresh wild berries. Lingers beautifully on the finish and makes you want more. A true red wine classic from Austria red wine classic that pairs particularly well with beef, steaks and hearty braised meat. But it is also the perfect wine to raise a toast on a special occasion.

This fine wine can be aged for another 10 years or more - but who wants to wait that long?
