The Prieler 2006 Leithaberg – Blaufrankisch blended with a bit of St.-Laruent – is one of a group of wines being marketed under that name in both white and red by selected Burgenland vintners to promote (free from new wood) the concept of the breezy Leitha Hills as a source of complex and well-balanced wines. High-toned black cherry in the nose points up the role of the St.-Laurent, and this is dense, lushly-fruited and filled with tart fruit skin, cherry pit bitterness, ginger spice, and saline, pungent, and chalky mineral nuances. (The origin of the fruit, incidentally, is vines in both schist and chalk-clay.) I would give this another year in the bottle and anticipate 5-7 further years of interesting evolution. The quality of 2006 for Burgenland’s premier red variety fully merited the late bottling practiced by Prielers, with the result that I have still not tasted from bottle three that were still in cask until last September.Importer: Terry Theise Estate Selections, imported by Michael Skurnik Wines, Inc., Syosset, NY; tel.
