Julius Klein St. Laurent

Julius Klein St. Laurent

Julius Klein St. Laurent is a red wine produced by Weingut Julius Klein, a winery located in Carnuntum, Austria. St. Laurent is a native Austrian grape variety known for its elegance and complexity.

Julius Klein St. Laurent has a ruby red color. In the nose hints of morello cherries, black currants and cloves. This wine has a solid structure. The grape gets its name from the fact that it often only begins to ripen on August 10, the feast day in honor of Saint Laurentius.

Weingut Julius Klein strives for high quality and care in their wine production. They work by hand to harvest the grapes and pay attention to details to bring out the unique characteristics of the grapes and terroir.

Where people thought for a long time that the St. Laurent was a variety of the Spätburgunders, it has now turned out to be a species all its own. This grape likes the winter and cold nights in Austria, but needs summer heat to ripen. This cold-warm dynamic produces exciting and beautifully balanced wines.

Julius Klein throws this wine into large wooden barrels for a few more months for a slightly toasty effect. Nice and light taste and plenty of strawberry fruit.
