I'm not typically a sweet wine sinker but this peach/white blend is fantastic! Lightly sweet with lush flavors of fresh peaches off their own orchards. — 10 years ago

Heidi Schrock 2014 Rosé Biscaya, Burgenland | 12% | From the warm continental (what they call Pannonian) climate of Neusiedlersee-Huggeland in Burgenland –Austria’s eastern most wine region pressed against the Hungarian frontier, this vintage seems to have dropped the St Laurent of previous vintages and is made of 40% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Pinot Noir although Heidi admits to using eight varieties in all –each in supporting roles. It’s a beautiful rosy red with a fragrant headful of umeboshi pickled plums of Japan for their tension of salty tart fruit and their fragrant shiso perilla leaf lift, but other fruit wafts up bright and fresh. Red currants and white cherries all carry over as well onto the palate –a scrumptious sip of tang and texture, brine and savor –for which it bears that saltwater taffy charm that I love about this rosé –in a watering-at-the-corners-of-the-mouth sort of way. It’s appealing in a way I’d never known before it –like feelings of fervor among inchoate lovers before which everything seemed so certain and after which the world seemed wide. Prepare yourself for a first kiss where red fruit orchards meet the sea. Food? Who needs food? …if I were to dream up a dish for this specifically it might involve a crispy rendered duck breast with a compote of those gamey black currants but you name it: pork chops, schnitzel, tempura, or citrus poached fish of the herring family.

A very intense pinot! It could be the fact that the orchards are blooming here, but there's a smart hit of orange blossom in this bottle. Thank God it's not watery but still light. Very smooth and bold, not the widest variety of fruit BUT a great flavor I believe I can say I've never tasted in a pinot before. — 11 years ago

Medium gold. Aromas more of orchards than fields. With air gaining a hint of tropical notes, pineapple. Distinctly sweeter than expected but residual CO2 saves the day, bless the Stelvin. — 11 years ago
