The Roesler Ried Rosenberg 2022 from Weingut Pesau is a powerful red wine from the highly regarded Ried Rosenberg vineyard in the Weinviertel. The Roesler grape, a crossing known for its resistance and intense colour, here produces a wine with a deep ruby red colour and concentrated aromas. On the nose this wine reveals a complex bouquet of ripe blackcurrants, plums, cherries and a subtle spiciness of pepper and dried herbs. On the palate the wine offers a full body, firm but ripe tannins and a rich structure that underlines the depth of the fruit. The wine is partly aged in wooden barrels, giving a fine integration of spicy and vanilla notes. The long, full finish makes this Roesler particularly suited to lovers of robust red wines.
Pairs well with roast meat, stews and mature cheeses.
