Krug The Red Temptation 2018

YEAR: 2018
CABERNET SAUVIGNON, MERLOT, TWIN

The well-known classic from KRUG. Multi-layered and elegant red wine cuvée of Cabernet  Sauvignon, Merlot and Zweigelt. Mature berry fruit, fragrant cassis, lots of blackberry and nice extract sweetness. The delicate woody notes give the temptation an international character. Matching steak wine.

The KRUG winery is located in the Thermenregion, which is also considered the "Burgundy of Austria". The Krugs have been growing wine in Gumpoldskirchen since 1746. The winery comprises around 35 hectares of traditionally cultivated vineyards according to the guidelines of near-natural production. Gustav Krug continues the gentle handling of the grapes in the cellar with a lot of passion and heart and soul. When vinifying the wines, he uses a treasure trove that only a few wineries in the world can afford: wine from the best vintages.

The Krug winery mainly cultivates local grape varieties typical of the region, such as the Rotgipfler and Zierfandler, and creates powerful, multi-layered white and red wines with long ageing and storage potential.

The passion of winemaker Gustav Krug: "Committed to tradition. Dedicated to innovation. Many times excellent wines."
