Michael Opitz, Buddy Talk Red, Burgenland, Austria 2019

Approachable and fun, this blend of Zweigelt, Blaufränkisch and Roesler is a burst of red berries and crunchy orchard fruits. A hint of dried herbs adds complexity and texture. Soft yet lifted, with an acid undercurrent throughout. As the name suggests, this is the ideal companion for a relaxed chat with friends. Best enjoyed slightly chilled.
