And at such a low price. The Preisingers have been cultivating Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris) in the top Gols vineyard Goldberg since 1980. Time and again, it demonstrates the high quality of this powerful, dry wine. It is one of the most important wines on Georg’s estate, which has already received several awards, an impressive achievement in this price category. The wine is matured in large oak barrels, which give it the necessary maturity. The grapes are reddish grey, and the must is pink. The yeast removes the colour, leaving a golden yellow wine. Notes of pear, meadow herbs and quince are evident. Its subtle flavour and creamy texture make it an excellent accompaniment to food. A beautiful white wine made to accompany many dishes. This well-bodied wine goes particularly well with pumpkin, creamy pasta, veal or Indian dishes.

Grange Delay belongs exactly in this category. A wine from the Ventoux AOC in the Rhône Valley, a small, up-and-coming region on the left bank of the Rhône that is attracting increasing attention with its remarkably exciting wines. In the glass, the wine shows a deep ruby red colour. The nose is fine and complex, with ripe red fruit, dark berries and the typical garrigue notes of the south. Rosemary, thyme and wild herbs immediately give the wine that unmistakable scent of Provence. On the palate, the cuvée is taut, juicy and wonderfully precise. The fruit is lively, almost mouth-watering, and there is a well-defined acidity that brings freshness and drive. This French wine has an exceptionally long and elegant finish. The grapes come from a single vineyard around the old family farm, where the berries ripen slowly and evenly. Syrah was matured in wood and adds further depth, fine flavour and structure. The result is a wine that skilfully combines generosity with finesse. A fine accompaniment to lamb, game dishes, braised beef or mature hard cheese. Anyone looking for Rhône wines with style, length and a true sense of origin should consider this wine.

With the Vintage 2017, the house once again shows why this icon is among the most sought-after sparkling wines in the world. The vintage was anything but easy. Spring frost, hot and dry months, followed by rain shortly before the harvest, made for a year full of challenges. Yet it is precisely in such years that true greatness is revealed. Careful selection and a high level of sensitivity have resulted in a champagne with tension, character and remarkable energy. On the nose, this vintage is immediately complex and compelling. Floral notes, jasmine, candied citrus zest and subtle earthy hints combine with a refined freshness. On the palate, this prestige champagne is dynamic and lively. A creamy texture, fine pressure, saline freshness and a long, dry finish create a truly striking impression. This cuvée of 61% Chardonnay and 39% Pinot Noir matured on the lees for around eight years, giving it notable depth and harmony. Perfect on its own for special occasions, yet also excellent with oysters, scallops, fine fish, truffle dishes or delicate poultry. A champagne for great moments, and for those who are not satisfied with the ordinary.

Certified organic with vintage 2025
Expressive & full of drinking pleasure
Companion to Austrian cuisine]]>

2026-04-13T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-13T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/hofbauer-schmidt/weinviertel-dac-klassik-gr-veltliner-2025-bio Hohenwarth lies in the far west of the Weinviertel, at around 350 metres above sea level and above the surrounding municipalities. This setting is ideal for producing elegant, mineral wines with character. This typical Grüner Veltliner thrives on warm loess soil and immediately impressed us on tasting. Alongside the characteristic white pepper note, the wine shows a delicately creamy texture with a clean freshness that reflects its origins. This is exactly how it presents on the palate. Not too heavy and not overly sweet, it offers a fine balance of fruit, flavour and acidity, with an honest and well-judged style. It is highly enjoyable to drink, particularly on warmer days. It pairs perfectly with traditional Austrian cuisine, always presents well and leaves you wanting more. This is precisely how Grüner Veltliner from the south-western Weinviertel should be.

Unfiltered, with natural turbidity
Precise, powerful accompaniment to food
Far from mainstream]]>

2026-04-27T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-27T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/gerhard-pittnauer/rose-by-nature-2025-bio With his Rosé by Nature 2025, Gerhard Pittnauer presents a sensory and visual alternative to the usual light, pale rosé wines. This natural wine is bottled unfiltered and with very little sulphur. It stands out for its depth and character, unlike many lighter rosés. In Italy, this style is known as "un rosso leggero", a light red that has long been popular there. The aroma recalls pomegranate, wild berries and citrus fruits, with a subtle spicy note. On the palate, it is juicy, elegant and at the same time powerful. The finish is fruity, clear and well-balanced. An excellent match for spicy dishes, especially Arabic or Indian cuisine.

From the famous Heideboden vineyard
Great food companion]]>

It is matured in old, restored, large wooden barrels, allowing the wine to develop and breathe. The flavours in the glass range from elderberry and banana to exotic fruits. These are complemented by typical Chardonnay notes such as almonds and fresh orange on the finish. The acidity is well integrated, lively and balanced, inviting another sip. If you are looking for enjoyment to the last sip, you have come to the right place. Overall, it is a fresh and lively expression of the variety, and also a versatile partner for food. We recommend this wine with poultry and robust fish dishes.

Dry, fruity white wine
Juicy flavour
Trendy]]>

2026-04-27T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-27T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/josef-scharl/muscaris-klassik-2025 Awarded the gold medal at the PIWI Wine Competition 2022 and the winner of the Weekly Wine Challenge.

Awarded GOLD and 92 Falstaff points. This Roter Veltliner Hohenwart was previously known as Roter Veltliner Ried Hochstrass and, since this vintage, has been classified as a local wine, while remaining essentially the same excellent wine as before. Fresh and layered on the palate, it immediately lifts the mood. Dry, with notes of ripe yellow pear and exotic fruits. A subtle almond note highlights its charming character. Complex and juicy. This grape variety is unfortunately very rare in Austria, yet it greatly enriches the country’s wine portfolio. Like Austro Pop, it is made to tell stories. An excellent accompaniment to a wide range of dishes, particularly poultry, and also a good choice with vegetables.

Classic from the steel tank
More than just a summer wine]]>

2026-04-28T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-28T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/josef-scharl/gelber-muskateller-vstmk-dac-2025 The 2021 vintage was already an Aroma winner at the Österreichische Gastro Zeitung (ÖGZ) and received a gold award. The new 2025 vintage is also an instant favourite. This is exactly what Gelber Muskateller from the Styrian volcanic region tastes like. Classically matured in steel tanks, the wine reveals its typical character in the glass. It offers wonderful muscat fruit, herbs and elderflower in harmony, along with a hint of rose petals. The palate is juicy and intense, with a balanced finish. It invites the next sip and impresses with a dry interplay of fruit and acidity.

Wonderful hazelnut flavours
Beguiling and enormously long-lasting
Absolute bestseller]]>

2026-04-24T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-24T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/allram/grauburgunder-reserve-2024-bio This Grauburgunder inspires us every time. It is rare to find such depth and such a range of flavours in a single wine. With this reserve, Lorenz Allram shows his mastery of Burgundy-style wines. Alongside the Riesling Heiligenstein, it is clearly one of the winery’s flagships. After 12 months in barrique barrels, the wine is still quite young, yet it already reveals its potential. With a little air in the glass, the nose opens to fine roasted aromas from the wood, accompanied by notes of freshly roasted hazelnuts. On the palate, this beautiful hazelnut character returns and lingers pleasantly. It is complemented by hints of banana and nougat, with the nougat note in particular being quite unusual for a white wine. Despite its richness, the wine also shows delicate spice and subtle minerality. This is a young wine at the beginning of its development, with the potential to age gracefully for 15 to 20 years. It pairs beautifully with porcini mushrooms, truffle dishes, and even beef. It also works well as an alternative to red wine on colder days. If you have not tried it yet, you are truly missing out.

Velvety, rather light, suitable for everyday enjoyment
Paoirs well with pizza, pasta & for parties]]>

2026-04-14T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-14T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/gerhard-pittnauer/zweigelt-heideboden-2024-bio Many people with an affinity for wine are familiar with Heideboden. This large vineyard produces easy-drinking, velvety red wines, mostly from Gols, Mönchhof, Halbturn or Podersdorf, with an attractive price-to-performance ratio. This still young Zweigelt Heideboden perfectly reflects its origin and was produced organically. After maturing for six months in large wooden barrels, this wine shows its full potential in the glass. Dark purple in colour, with warm cherry and soft cherry fruit on the nose, and very juicy on the palate. Soft tannins on the finish with an appealing drinkability that invites a second sip. Goes well with pizza, pasta, roast onions or as a harmonious accompaniment to a barbecue.

A real highlight from the Wachau for those on a budget
A great accompaniment to traditional cuisine and home cooking]]>

2026-04-13T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-13T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/johann-donabaum/gruener-veltliner-peunt-federspiel-2025 Can you call a wine your favourite if it is not very expensive? You can, of course, but to be honest, we tend to have several favourites. The Grüner Veltliner Peunt is one of them. The new 2025 vintage has been awarded 92 Falstaff points, making it one of the best Federspiels in the Wachau. We would even give it 93 points. A very drinkable Grüner Veltliner that offers more than the price might suggest. A beautiful nose with fresh stone fruit, herbs and a mineral note. Extra dry on the palate, yet very juicy and lively, quite powerful but well balanced. Notes of citrus and pale fruit, some peach, and a good level of complexity. Very fine, with a good, long finish. We can recommend it without reservation, and it pairs wonderfully with many everyday dishes.

Partly matured in large wooden barrels
Juicy, fresh, creamy and wonderfully complex
Perfect with fish, risotto and pasta dishes]]>

2026-04-24T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-24T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/fraccaroli/lugana-doc-campo-sera-superiore-2024 Lugana can also present itself in this way: multi-layered, complex, juicy and with a very pleasant tang on the palate. This Lugana Superiore is already convincing on the nose, with bright fruit, ripe pear, some green apple and a fine spiciness. There is also a delicate hint of wood that is not immediately obvious, yet adds depth and character to the wine. The 2024 vintage was almost ideal for us. As it was not as hot around Lake Garda as in the previous year, the grapes were able to hang longer and ripen perfectly. This is exactly what creates the wonderful balance of ripeness, freshness and drinkability. On the palate, this Lugana is beautifully juicy, creamy and powerful. Plenty of bright fruit, fine flavour and lively acidity ensure that you will want to take the next sip. It is denser and more complex than many classic wines, yet always remains elegant and lively. It is a real pleasure to drink on its own, but it works just as well with fish dishes, risotto, pasta with seafood or white meat. A top-class wine and, for us, one of the most exciting Luganas of the vintage. Excellent now, with the potential to develop further over the next few years in the cellar.

One of the best Rieslings in Austria
Elegant, mineral, long-lasting
Great ageing potential]]>

2026-04-28T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-28T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/allram/riesling-ried-heiligenstein-2023-bio The south-facing Riesling vineyards are located on Heiligenstein, likely the most famous vineyard in the Kamptal. At 270 million years old, dating back to the Permian period, the site is one of the geologically oldest formations in the region. A unique combination of desert sandstone and volcanic components provides the foundation for the vines. Between the vineyards, there is a range of flora and fauna that is otherwise found only in Mediterranean climates. On the carefully preserved stone terraces, the interplay of soil, orientation, microclimate, and the winegrower’s dedication produces exceptional Rieslings. This still young example is regarded by many specialised publications as one of the finest of its kind in Austria. The nose reveals flint and delicate floral notes. On the palate, it shows beautiful fruit development with smoky, stony, and chalky nuances, along with stone fruit, citrus zest, and fine herbal hints. Everything is tightly structured and finely interwoven, supported by a lively acidity and a striking minerality typical of Heiligenstein. It is elegant, juicy, and impressively concentrated. It has outstanding ageing potential and leaves a remarkably long finish. A truly great wine that can confidently be called world-class.

Only fully ripe grapes from 35-year-old vines were harvested by hand. After fermentation in stainless steel tanks, this Riesling was matured in large wooden barrels. This results in a wine that is well-balanced and elegant, while retaining its essential freshness. In the glass, it shows aromas of vineyard peach and ripe apricot. Juicy, smooth extracts unfold on the palate. A well-formed body creates a pleasant mouthfeel, supported by a delicate fruit sweetness. It moves gracefully and finishes with a subtle, refined impression. It has excellent ageing potential for a further six to eight years.

The certified top vineyard “Renner” stands out above all for its remarkable spiciness and minerality. Additional ageing in the bottle has further refined this dry Grüner Veltliner. It now shows a clear golden yellow colour, with subtle exotic notes of mango, honey and delicate herbal spice. On the palate, it is powerful and juicy, combining elegance and intensity without becoming overwhelming. A hint of saltiness with citrus notes lingers on the finish.

It is also organic. This rosé made from Zweigelt grapes impresses with its fresh charm. Gently crushed, then pressed and fermented at cool temperatures in steel tanks, the young 2025 presents itself in a delicate pink colour. It shows a fragrant, straightforward character with hints of red berries and cherries. With its refreshing fruit and harmonious balance, the Rosé König is an uncomplicated and versatile food companion, especially for light summer dishes. A classic for hot days and warm summer evenings. Tip: Try a Rosé G’Spritzen with this wine. Only really good wines make a good G’Spritzen. The mineral or soda water enhances the red berry notes. Pure drinking pleasure at a high level.

Very good ageing potential
Ideal accompaniment to game dishes]]>

2026-05-05T22:00:00+00:00 2026-05-05T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/schloss-gobelsburg/pinot-noir-reserve-2021 Pinot Noir feels particularly at home in cooler regions. The reserve from the outstanding 2021 vintage was aged for 18 months in 600-litre oak barrels and still has excellent development potential. The high limestone content of the soil gives this elegant wine its mineral, Burgundian style. Medium ruby red in colour, slightly transparent at the rim, typical of Pinot Noir. Fresh red fruits such as cherries, raspberries and some strawberry on the nose, with fine spicy notes and a hint of wood. Dry on the palate and very balanced. The fruit is clear but not overly strong or sweet, with cherries and berries again. There are also light roasted flavours from the wood, supported by fresh, lively acidity. A pleasant mouthfeel that never feels heavy and lingers for a long time. Perfect with game dishes, mild cheeses, or simply on its own for a cosy evening.

The certified To-Lage “Renner” stands out above all for its remarkable spiciness and minerality. Additional bottle ageing has made this dry Grüner Veltliner even more refined. It now appears in a crystal clear golden yellow colour. On the nose, there are exotic hints of mango and honey, complemented by a delicate herbal note.

Great red wine with power, elegance and ageing potential]]>

2026-05-06T22:00:00+00:00 2026-05-06T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/bodega-numanthia/termanthia-2017 Some wines impress not through sheer power, but through their pure presence. This probably best-known red from Toro clearly shows why it is so highly regarded. From the moment it is poured, it’s evident that this is no ordinary Toro. Dark, dense and remarkably concentrated, it still retains a sense of calm and elegance that is truly striking. The grapes come from extremely old, ungrafted vines—some well over a hundred years old. These ancient Tinta de Toro vines produce very low yields, but deliver exceptional concentration and depth. After 18 months in French oak, the 2017 vintage reveals a fascinating interplay of dark fruit, spice and maturity. On the nose, there are aromas of black cherries, blackberries, cassis and plums, complemented by notes of cocoa, espresso, cedar, tobacco and oriental spices. The palate is powerful and dense, yet never heavy. The tannins are substantial, but beautifully refined. Despite its intensity, the wine shows remarkable freshness and precision, making it incredibly compelling. The finish is long, deep and lingers for minutes. A great Spanish red with impressive ageing potential, it is already highly enjoyable with a little air. Best decanted and served in large glasses. Ideal with steak, game dishes, or simply on its own as a contemplative wine for a long evening.

Matured in used 500-litre barrels
Medium-bodied, elegant, dark berry flavour]]>

2026-04-14T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-14T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/gerhard-pittnauer/pannobile-rot-2023-bio This perfectly balanced, still youthful organic red wine cuvée made from Zweigelt and Blaufränkisch offers aromas of ripe blackberries with delicate notes of nougat. It is juicy on the palate, followed by a long finish with a silky, soft tannin structure. Light and fresh, it has a lively character, with a subtle hint of cardamom spice. The influence of the used 500 litre barrels is gently present, allowing the fruit to take centre stage. The Pannobile red is enjoyable to drink now, though it benefits from decanting or a little aeration in the glass. With ideal storage, it will continue to delight for the next 10 years. It pairs well with dark meat, game, or a relaxed evening with friends. The name Pannobile reflects both the origin, Pannonia, and the special value of these wines, from noble or nobile. Over 25 years ago, nine winegrowers from Gols joined forces to create a Burgenland brand that clearly signals quality. All Pannobile wines are characterised by maturation in used barriques and the use of predominantly autochthonous, or local, grape varieties.

From excellent vineyards on Langenlois löss soils
Great momentum and remarkable structure
Versatile companion at the table]]>

2026-04-24T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-24T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/schloss-gobelsburg/langenlois-gruener-veltliner-kamptal-dac-2025 Langenlois is the centre of the Kamptal appellation and is widely regarded as the epitome of wine culture. The loess soil deposited here over thousands of years provides the foundation for this local wine. Sourced from very good loess sites in Langenlois, this is a mature and already quite charming Paradeveltliner: pithy pear fruit with hints of orange zest; juicy melon on the palate, still lively, fresh and engaging to drink at every stage. A fine structure with a lively interplay of fruit and acidity. Plenty of grip and backbone on the savoury finish. Notes of yellow pear and delicate spice linger for a long time. This is what a good Veltliner from Langenlois should taste like. A versatile companion to food, especially everyday dishes and Viennese cuisine.

Matured in steel tanks
Juicy, firm, stimulating]]>

You can sense the craftsmanship of top winemaker Josef Scharl in every sip. A dry white wine that stands out with plenty of fruit and a juicy, refreshing character. It shows a bright green gold colour in the glass. On the nose and palate, exotic fruits such as mango, papaya, and yellow pear take the lead. It is taut, with crisp acidity and a lively, invigorating feel. Subtle spice and a hint of redcurrant carry through to a pleasant finish. It is excellent on its own and also pairs well with Asian dishes or savoury pasta.

Matured in used barriques
Winner of the Reserve Trophy
Top price-performance wine]]>

2026-05-08T22:00:00+00:00 2026-05-08T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/georg-u-katharina-preisinger/gols-rotweincuvee-2023-bio The red wine cuvée GOLS is an excellent representation of the village on Lake Neusiedl. It was deservedly honoured by A la Carte Magazine as the winner of the Reserve Trophy, receiving 93 points. It is made from the local varieties Blaufränkisch and Zweigelt, combining the strengths of both. The wine was matured in barrique barrels, with one third new oak, and then bottled in the cellar. It has now reached an appealing stage of drinking maturity. The 2019 vintage is also considered one of the best for red wines in Burgenland. This top-level cuvée offers a clear aroma of cherries and dark berries, along with a distinctive cassis note. The tannins are velvety and soft, leading to a finely spiced finish. Subtle smoky and savoury oak notes appear in the background, complemented by delicate mineral hints. The overall impression is juicy and harmonious, with a very good, long finish. It offers excellent value for money and has ageing potential until at least 2034, although it is already very tempting to enjoy now.

Yellow tropical fruit with typical acidity
Crisp, fresh and delicious
A classic that everyone likes]]>

2026-05-06T22:00:00+00:00 2026-05-06T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/polz/sauvignon-blanc-suedstmk-dac-2025 This is exactly how a classic Sauvignon Blanc from Southern Styria should taste. It reflects the unmistakable character of the Polz family. Harvested from different vineyards, it is matured in stainless steel tanks and ready to be enjoyed at any time. The nose reveals subtle aromas of gooseberries, along with juicy, elegant notes of peach and a hint of paprika. The crisp acidity adds a lively touch and perfectly expresses the region. The finish is fresh and very dry, with a delicate note of blossom honey. A pure and refreshing choice for summer, and an excellent companion to light starters and salads.

Classically matured in steel tanks
Great everyday companion]]>

2026-04-24T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-24T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/allram/gruener-veltliner-ried-hasel-2025-bio It is always remarkable what Lorenz Allram achieves with this “entry-level”, single-vineyard wine. The Grüner Veltliner Ried Hasel is not only often highly rated for its price, it is also immediately appealing from the first sip. It is perfectly balanced, subtle and full of harmony. Dry and classically matured in stainless steel tanks, this Kamptal white wine enjoys wide popularity. On the nose, it shows a typical bouquet of spices with slightly exotic notes. Extra dry on the palate, it is fragrant with a full, lively acidity, a classic Veltliner character and an easy drinking, medium body. The balance of fruit and flavour is excellent. Everything comes together seamlessly. A lot of wine for the price, and organic as well. Ideal with salads, traditional home cooking, or simply enjoyed on its own any day.

An autochthonous example
Great for blind tastings
Super companion to asparagus & vegetarian dishes]]>

2026-04-13T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-13T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/hofbauer-schmidt/gruner-sylvaner-ried-end-des-berges-2025 Grüner Sylvaner is Austria’s oldest grape variety and is unfortunately difficult to find. In Germany, this white wine variety is also known as the Österreich Rebe. However, only around 50 hectares of this autochthonous example are still cultivated. This characterful wine from 25-year-old vines is distinctive and performs well in blind tastings. Smoky and refined, it shows delicate pear and quince notes, while remaining lively and offering good drinkability with its juicy acidity. A wine like this is well worth trying. Ideal with asparagus and also pairs well with many other vegetarian dishes.

With a subtle minerality
Great with fish and poultry
Terrace wine]]>

2026-04-28T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-28T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/allram/riesling-strass-kamptal-dac-2025 A picture-perfect Riesling. Dry, not too strong, and elegantly balanced, with fine minerality and a juicy flavour. It pairs beautifully with fish and poultry. The grapes for this still young wine come from several vineyards in the village of Strass. The soils are defined by a high proportion of primary rock, combined with loess and brown earth. These vineyards also contain an above-average amount of limestone, which gives the wine its distinctive minerality and pure character. Delicate stone fruit aromas on the nose lead into a juicy and engaging palate. A subtle, pithy bite is supported by pronounced minerality and finishes with a long, refined aftertaste. Notes reminiscent of Tyrolean apricots come through. This is a classic, elegant Riesling that is ideal for warm days.

Great everyday red wine with good body
Goes great with pizza and home cooking]]>

2026-04-28T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-28T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/georg-u-katharina-preisinger/zweigelt-heideboden-neusiedler-dac-2024-bio A full-bodied and fruity Zweigelt DAC from the famous "Heideboden" vineyard on Lake Neusiedl. Produced according to organic guidelines, this classic red wine once again ranks among the top of the tasting list. It shows a beautiful dark colour with violet reflections, along with inviting cherry aromas and a delicate hint of roasted notes on the nose. On the palate, it is exactly the kind of Zweigelt we enjoy. Dry, juicy and elegant, with a soft character and plenty of red berry fruit. It has excellent drinkability and immediately invites another sip. A great match for pizza, pasta and home-style cooking, and an ideal companion for many occasions. Delicious on its own in a glass, but even better when shared with friends or family. It also pairs wonderfully with pizza, pork or roast beef.

Matured in large wooden barrels
Long-lasting, salty
10-15 years potential]]>

2026-04-24T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-24T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/genussgut-krispel/sauvignon-blanc-ried-neusetzberg-2023-bio That Styria is renowned for outstanding Sauvignon Blanc is no longer a secret. This example from the Erste Lage Neusetzberg also impresses with its excellent value for money, surpassing many well-known single vineyard wines. Matured in large wooden barrels, it shows a remarkable structure while retaining freshness and drinkability. The nose is expressive, with intense aromas of nettle and exotic fruits, particularly passion fruit. On the palate, it is dense and aromatic, dry, with a fine acidity that encourages further drinking. The finish is savoury, with a delicate extractive sweetness and a long, slightly citrus persistence. A wine that truly makes the mouth water. It has excellent ageing potential of 10 to 15 years, with a drinking window that has already begun. Perfect with spaghetti and rich sauces such as carbonara, it also pairs very well with freshwater fish.

From the Dürrau vineyard in Horitschon
Dark, dense, powerful, unique
Packaged in a black gift box]]>

2026-04-20T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-20T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/kerschbaum/blaufraenkisch-x-2015 This is the kind of red wine dreams are made of. The Blaufränkisch X from the excellent 2015 vintage comes from the finest plot in Horitschon, the Dürrau vineyard. It was matured at the winery for ten years, including 24 months in new barriques. Fewer than 1,000 bottles of this powerful and distinctive red wine exist, and it still has a long life ahead. A profound Blaufränkisch with impressive structure, fine tannins and elegant maturity. It shows just how beautifully this special grape variety can age. It reaches its ideal drinking maturity very slowly, but should be decanted around two hours before serving. Each bottle is a strictly limited one-off, marked with a hand-painted golden X. Presented in a black gift box.

Matured on the fine lees in large wooden barrels
Now beautifully matured and perfectly accessible
Yellow-fruity, mineral and wonderfully precise]]>

This Spitzer Point Smaragd from 2018 is a perfect example. Today, it has reached the stage where great Wachau Veltliners are most enjoyable, showing maturity, depth, and a remarkable sense of calm that comes from a good vintage and sufficient bottle ageing. The vines, now over 60 years old, grow on Spitzer Point, a striking site in the heart of the Wachau. Around Setzberg, Zornberg, and Offenberg, fine weathered material has gathered over thousands of years, giving the wines their distinctive minerality and precision. After about ten months on the fine lees in large wooden barrels, this Veltliner has developed impressive harmony and complexity. On the nose, it offers ripe yellow apple, pear, a touch of apricot, and the characteristic herbal spice of a fine Grüner Veltliner. Subtle notes of tobacco and a gentle nuttiness reflect the wine’s maturity. On the palate, it is dense, juicy, and highly precise. Its minerality is focused and saline, while the fruit remains beautifully integrated. The balance between power and freshness is especially striking. Nothing feels tired or heavy. Instead, the 2018 expresses a relaxed sense of greatness that makes mature Wachau wines so compelling. Serve in large glasses and allow it some air to fully reveal its character.

18 months in barrique
Dark, spicy, powerful]]>

2026-05-05T22:00:00+00:00 2026-05-05T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/rotweine-lang/l1-blaufraenkisch-reserve-2023 The 40-year-old vines from the Hochberg vineyard in Neckenmarkt, together with ageing in barrique barrels, create a dark Blaufränkisch full of power and finesse.

It immediately brings a smile and invites another sip. The tannins are round and pleasantly sweet, with hints of nougat and blackberries, balanced by gentle acidity and a delicate, long chocolate note on the finish. Dreamlike. It can easily be stored for another 10 years and pairs well with rich meat dishes and game. It is also excellent on its own or for impressing the in-laws.

Yellow tropical fruit with typical acidity
Crunchy, fresh and splendid specimen
1.5 litre large bottle - special edition]]>

2026-04-30T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-30T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/polz/sauvignon-blanc-suedstmk-dac-2025-magnum This is exactly how a classic Sauvignon Blanc from Southern Styria should taste. The DNA of the Polz family. Harvested from different vineyards, matured in steel tanks, and ready to be enjoyed at any time. The nose is defined by a subtle aroma of gooseberries, a juicy and elegant note of peach, and a hint of paprika. The crisp acidity is lively and perfectly reflects the region. The finish is fresh, very dry, and complemented by a delicate touch of blossom honey. A splendid example. A clean and vibrant choice for summer, and an excellent accompaniment to light starters and salads.

Aged for 18 months in French oak
Dark berries, cocoa and spicy depth
Powerful, dense and yet surprisingly elegant]]>

2026-05-06T22:00:00+00:00 2026-05-06T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/bodega-numanthia/numanthia-2020 Toro can be a powerful, even intense wine region, but it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Numanthia has proven this impressively for years. The 2020 vintage shows remarkable power and concentration, yet remains surprisingly precise and elegant - a wine with real intensity, but also true class. Its signature style is immediately evident on the nose: black cherries, blackberries, cassis, and ripe plums are layered with notes of dark chocolate, espresso, cedar, and fine spices. Subtle hints of warm herbs and a touch of smokiness from oak ageing add further complexity. On the palate, the wine is dense, intense, and beautifully juicy. Old Tinta de Toro vines provide exceptional concentration, while the freshness of the vintage keeps everything lively and balanced. The tannins are clearly present, yet ripe and finely integrated. This balance of power, fruit, and structure is what makes Numanthia so compelling. Ageing in French oak adds depth and length without overshadowing the fruit. Flavours of dark berries, cocoa, and a delicate mineral note linger on the long finish. A great Spanish red for special occasions—ideal with steak, braised meats, game, or mature cheese. Given a little air, this Toro already reveals its full character, while still offering excellent ageing potential.

Made from Zweigelt & Blaufränkisch grapes
Juicy, strawberry-flavoured, easy-drinking]]>

2026-04-28T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-28T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/j-heinrich/magic-rose-2025 The new Magic Rosé 2025 is a dry and fruity rosé wine by the likeable Silvia Heinrich. With around 5 g of residual sugar and matured in stainless steel tanks, this wine is truly enjoyable in the glass. It has a bright pink colour. On the nose, it reveals delicate aromas of strawberries, raspberries and red currants. On the palate, it feels lighter than expected, lively and very fruity. The subtle fruit sweetness is well balanced by a pleasant acidity, which gives the wine a fresh character. The finish is harmonious and invites you to take another sip. Magic Rosé is perfect for warm days. It pairs well as an aperitif or with light dishes. It is particularly delicious with salads topped with goat’s cheese, grilled vegetables, antipasti or grilled fish.

Short ageing in oak for greater depth
Notes of dark fruit, tobacco and chocolate
Juicy, soft and very pleasant to drink]]>

2026-04-20T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-20T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/la-pruina-vini/negroamaro-puglia-igt-2025 Some wines do not seek to stand out and are all the more inspiring for it. This Negroamaro is clearly one of them. A red wine that quickly wins over many people from the first sip and immediately impresses with its charm. In the glass, the wine is deep and dark in colour with violet reflections. The nose reveals ripe blackberries, blueberries and a delicate hint of sour cherry. The short period of ageing in wood adds gentle spicy notes of tobacco and a touch of chocolate, which enhance its appeal. On the palate, this southern Italian is juicy, soft and wonderfully rounded. The dark fruit remains present, supported by a pleasant fullness that never feels heavy. A fresh acidity provides balance and makes the wine highly approachable. It is this balance between power and drinkability that makes it so appealing. Negroamaro means “black and bitter”, but there is nothing bitter here. Instead, the grape variety shows its charming side, with dark fruit, a soft texture and Mediterranean character. La Pruina has been one of the most exciting producers in Puglia for years and understands how to combine modern drinking pleasure with regional style. An excellent match for barbecues, pizza, pasta with rich sauces or simply on its own in the evening. This red is also very enjoyable when served slightly chilled. An uncomplicated favourite with a remarkable amount of character for the price.

Made from Blauer Wildbacher grapes
Matured in used wooden barrels
Perfect drinking maturity]]>

2026-04-24T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-24T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/mustergamlitz1196/rose-illyr-sinnbindlich-puls-2021 A very high-quality, beautiful rosé wine from the remarkable 2021 vintage, which we would not have expected.

Despite its intensity, it remains harmonious and approachable. Ageing in amphora suits this wine well and shows how traditional methods can complement modern styles. The fruit stays at the forefront, while structure and origin are clearly expressed. Grenache brings charm and richness, Syrah adds spice, Mourvèdre contributes depth, and Marslan gives additional character. Together, they form a wine with presence. This powerful wine pairs well with red meat, hearty stews, lamb or mature goat’s cheese. Anyone seeking a red wine with expression, energy and character will find it here.

The cuvée of Grenache and Cinsault has plenty of charm, while remaining pleasantly fresh and uncomplicated. It is not a heavy red wine, but one with a smooth drinking flow and a Mediterranean character. The vineyards around Mont Ventoux benefit from warm days and cool nights, which allows the wines to retain a good balance despite their southern ripeness. This is what makes this red wine so versatile. An excellent accompaniment to grilled meat, ratatouille, pasta with rich sauces, pizza or a relaxed evening with friends. An honest Rhône wine that is highly enjoyable.

Matured in concrete tanks
Apricot, floral fragrance and elegant fruit
Fresh, accessible and very drinkable]]>

2026-04-20T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-20T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/domaine-du-bon-remede/viognier-igp-mediterranee-2025 Viognier can be opulent and heavy, but it does not have to be. This southern French wine shows the charming, fresh side of the grape variety and is enjoyable from the very first glass. Fruity, elegant and pleasantly uncomplicated.

Matured for 12 months in wooden barrels
Dense, juicy and elegant at the same time
Ideal with lamb, duck and fine meat]]>

2026-04-20T22:00:00+00:00 2026-04-20T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/domaine-du-bon-remede/secret-de-vincent-aoc-ventoux-2023 Some discoveries are rare. This winery is certainly one of them for us. A genuine insider tip, as you would usually have to spend much more elsewhere for this level of quality. Secret du Vincent clearly shows why we are so enthusiastic about this winery. In the glass, the cuvée appears deep ruby red with a dense colour. Ripe dark fruit, peppery spice and delicate roasted aromas come through on the nose. These are joined by nutty notes reminiscent of walnut, adding further appeal. On the palate, this Rhône red is juicy, concentrated and full-bodied. At the same time, a pleasant freshness adds tension, so the wine never feels heavy despite its power. It is precisely this balance that makes it so compelling. Twelve months of ageing in wooden barrels gives the wine structure, depth and elegant flavour without masking the fruit. Syrah contributes intensity, flavour and dark fruit, while Grenache brings charm, juiciness and warmth. Together, they create a wine with great expression and impressive balance. This red wine pairs well with leg of lamb, duck breast or refined meat dishes with rich sauces. If you are looking for powerful wines with substance, but do not want to compromise on freshness and elegance, this is an excellent choice.

The legendary champagne specially developed for ice cubes
Exotic fruit, honey and enormous summer vibes
Perfect for parties, beach clubs and special occasions]]>

2026-05-06T22:00:00+00:00 2026-05-06T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/moet-chandon/ice-imperial-wooden-box-300cl ICE Impérial is not just any demi-sec champagne. It is the pioneer of an entire category of drinks: sparkling summer beverages. In the 3-litre Jeroboam, it is certainly the centrepiece of any party. Only a few years ago, adding ice cubes to a glass of champagne would have drawn disapproving looks in France. This changed with ICE Impérial. Moët & Chandon developed a champagne specifically for summer locations such as St Tropez, Ibiza and the beach clubs of Miami. Demi-sec, meaning quite sweet, this champagne truly reveals its character when served over ice, ideally with a little lime and perhaps a leaf of mint. It is extremely fruity, with clear notes of honey, exotic fruits, mango and pineapple, and shows its best qualities when well chilled. ICE Impérial is even more impressive in the large 3-litre bottle. The Jeroboam creates a striking visual effect and also enhances harmony and freshness through slower maturation. ICE Impérial has become a cult favourite. A look around shows that many champagne houses and numerous sparkling wine producers have followed, offering similar products. Often closely imitated, but the original remains the original. Very rare, highly sought after and almost always sold out. This is especially true of the impressive 3-litre wooden crate.

Made from Muscat and Bouvier grapes
Fragrant, fruity and pleasant]]>

2026-05-08T22:00:00+00:00 2026-05-08T22:00:00+00:00 https://www.9wines.com/genussgut-krispel/zero-2025 De-alcoholised wines are becoming increasingly popular. The renowned Krispel winery from the Styrian Vulkanland region has embraced this trend with its “Zero 2025”, showcasing its expertise in white wine. The finished wine is matured in stainless steel tanks and is made from Muscat and Bouvier grapes. The alcohol is then gently removed using a modern vacuum evaporator. Since alcohol acts as a carrier of flavour, many wines of this kind can lack depth and intensity. This is not the case with Zero. There is almost no difference in the nose. Exotic fruits, citrus, and elderflower notes are clearly present, along with a hint of peach. On the palate, well-balanced acidity stands out at first, followed by delicate sweetness and fruity aromas. The wine is harmonious, grapey, and light-bodied. A good alternative when alcohol is not desired. Enjoy it on its own, as an aperitif, or paired with Asian dishes.
