While St Laurent can't be classified under the local Carnuntum DAC rules, it is certainly Glatzer's hidden gem. Grown on selected sites on sandy loam soils, Glatzer has a lot of love for his St Laurent vines and the quality is outstanding. It's hand-harvested and macerated for two weeks to get a deep inky colour. The wine is aged for 12 months in mature oak barrels. Cherry, plum and mulberries combine with hints of liquorice and black pepper spice.
Try with cold cuts, but also for stews with dark meat.
Walter Glatzer began producing wine in 1987 as they first opened the gates to their then 5.4 hectares large vineyard in Carnuntum, the famous wine-growing region east of Vienna. Following in the footsteps of the ancient Romans who prized its perfect climate for wine production, through the years their ambitions grew. So much so that nowadays 250,000 bottles of Glatzer wine annually set out on journeys around the globe.
Walter Glatzer is regarded as the driving engine of the wine region Carnuntum. His red wines – foremost the Zweigelt Dornenvogel – are arguably one of the best in Austria regarding pricing and quality.
