Jungenberg
The Altenburger Markus Jungenberg 2008 is an exceptional Blaufränkisch from the prestigious Jungenberg vineyard on the Leithaberg. Markus Altenburger is one of the pioneers of modern winemaking in Burgenland , and this mature Vintage impressively demonstrates the potential of this grape variety. The vines are rooted in calcareous soils, which impart the wine with its characteristic minerality and elegance.
The Jungenberg 2008 was vinified with the utmost care and aged in oak barrels. After more than a decade of bottle aging, the wine has developed into a complex, multi-layeRed Wine. The original fruit has transformed into subtle tertiary aromas, while the structure has become supple and refined. Only a few bottles remain – a rarity for collectors and connoisseurs.
The nose reveals a light, perfumed bouquet with notes of dried violets, forest floor, dark cherries, and a hint of tobacco. On the palate, the wine is elegant and silky, with fine acidity and velvety tannins. Aromas of ripe berries, graphite, and earthy nuances blend harmoniously. The finish is long, cool, and mineral – typical of this vineyard site.
