The 2023 Pittnauer Rosé ‘Konig’ is a fresh and vibrant rosé from Burgenland, Austria, crafted by Gerhard Pittnauer using a minimal-intervention approach that highlights purity and drinkability. Aromas of wild strawberry, raspberry and red cherry are complemented by delicate floral notes and a subtle mineral edge.
On the palate, it is crisp and refreshing, with bright acidity carrying flavours of fresh red berries, watermelon and citrus zest. The texture is light and energetic, leading to a dry finish that is clean, balanced and highly approachable.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic rosé for those who enjoy fresh, dry styles with plenty of character and versatility. Best enjoyed well chilled over the next 2–3 years while its vibrant fruit remains at its peak. Pairs beautifully with grilled prawns, charcuterie, fresh salads, Mediterranean dishes and light seafood meals.
