Hensel Aufwind Cuvee Rotwein

Der trockene Rotwein vom Weingut Hensel hat eine dichte purpurrote Farbe. Am Anfang ist die Cuvée kühl und jung, mit ausgeprägten Noten von Paprika. Am Gaumen fruchtig, mit Noten von dunklen Kirschen, saftigen Zwetschgen, Räucherspeck und einem Hauch von rotem Pfeffer.

Kraftvoll und geschmeidig, wohl ausbalanciert, zeigt der Aufwind Cuvée Rotwein aus der Pfalz sein ganzes Potenzial.

Er passt perfekt zu rotem Fleisch, Gegrilltem oder auch Blauschimmelkäse.

Product recommendation

Hensel und Gretel Cuvée Rotwein
The Hensel und Gretel Cuvée Rotwein (red wine) is another joint project realised by the wine-makers Thomas Hensel and Markus Schneider. The wine-makers from the Palatinate share not only a deep friendship, but their passion for creating great wines as well. Thus it’s no surprise that they collaborated in the creation of the Hensel and Gretel Rotwein (red wine), amongst others. Both of them are particularly fond of the Cabernet Sauvignon grape variety, which predominates in this red wine. The wine is a powerful deep red in the glass. On the nose, it is redolent of cocoa, vanilla, blackberries, cassis and dark cherries. The Hensel and Gretel Rotwein (red wine) is elegant and round on the palate, with wonderfully integrated tannins. The dry, boldly spicy wine has a fruity finish.The versatile Hensel and Gretel Rotwein (red wine) is an ideal accompaniment to pizza, pasta and similar dishes. It is also lovely to enjoy on its own – ideal for a cosy evening at home.

Hensel Ikarus Rotwein
Great wines need great names. Thus, the name taken from Greek mythology is a good choice for the Hensel Icarus. The wine is made from the Cabernet Cubin grape variety. It is vinified only in vintages that produce extraordinary grapes. The grapes for this wine come from a new line created in 1970 by crossing the Blaufränkisch and Cabernet Sauvignon grape varieties. The Hensel estate has long experimented with this grape variety, so that some of the vines are more than 40 years old. Although this leads to low yields, the grapes are extremely powerful.The Hensel Ikarus is a shimmering deep purple in the glass and offers rich berry flavours. We recommend decanting the wine before drinking it as the wine needs some time to open up. After a breathing period, the wine offers aromas of ripe berries on the palate, along with intense notes of coffee and delicious nuances of tobacco.The athletic tannins reveal the Hensel Ikarus’ great potential. It’s a wine that will bring you great pleasure for many years to come – ‘Feels Like Heaven’.
