Judith Beck Beck Ink from Burgenland, Austria — dark ruby and quite opaque with medium weight and silky smoothness, soft and dark juicy fruit flavours well-balanced by subtle earthy and spicy notes, a very characterful and very drinkable natural red from Austria's Zweigelt and St. Laurent varieties.
Tasting Notes
Dark ruby in colour, quite opaque but medium weight and silky smooth with a refreshing hint of minerality. Soft and dark juicy fruit flavours are well-balanced by subtle earthy and spicy notes, making an altogether very characterful and very drinkable wine. Beck Ink is the blend of Zweigelt and St. Laurent that has become Judith Beck's signature red — wines with the depth to look serious but the freshness to drink easily.
