🏢 Winery K+K Kirnbauer

Since its founding in 1975, the family winery has stood for innovation in Austrian viticulture. The "Phantom" was a revolution in 1987: a high-quality cuvée that set new standards. The winery cultivates approximately 40 hectares of vineyards, focusing on near-natural cultivation, yield reduction, and hand-picking. Starting with the 2022 vintage, Phantom is certified organic.

🌿 Origin & Terroir

In the heart of Central Burgenland, surrounded by hills and Lake Neusiedl, a wind-protected microclimate with ideal heat retention prevails. The deep clay soils are particularly conducive to the Blaufränkisch grape's excellent form, while the chalky slopes produce refined wines.

🍇 Grape varieties & vinification

  • 56% Merlot

  • 26% Cabernet Franc

  • 11% Cabernet Sauvignon

  • 7% Petit Verdot

The vines grow on heavy, sandy loam soils. After the harvest, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation and aging take place over 16 months in mostly used barriques.

🌚 Tasting note

A deep crimson red in the glass. The nose reveals ripe cherry, cassis, elderberry confit, floral nuances, and subtle roasted aromas. On the palate, it's powerful yet polished with ripe tannins, well-structured acidity, and a long, elegant finish. A masterpiece from Austria.

  • Falstaff: 93/100 points

  • Alcohol content: 14.5%

  • Serving temperature: 16 - 18 °C

Minimum order quantity: 3 bottles

Allergens: Contains sulfites

💡 Silvie's tip

A wine for special occasions. It's worth decanting—and best enjoyed in peace with dark chocolate or a truffle dish. 🍫🍷
