The 2019 Pittnauer St. Laurent Vom Dorf is an elegant and expressive red wine from Burgenland, Austria, crafted by Gerhard Pittnauer. Made from St. Laurent, a traditional Central European variety known for its aromatic complexity and silky texture, it offers inviting aromas of red cherry, blackberry, plum and subtle spice, with hints of dried herbs and earth.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied and finely balanced, with vibrant acidity supporting flavours of dark berries, red fruits and gentle savoury notes. The tannins are smooth and well-integrated, giving the wine structure without heaviness. The finish is dry, refined and persistent.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Pinot Noir drinkers looking to explore something a little different. The combination of bright fruit, freshness and subtle earthy complexity makes it highly versatile at the table. Enjoy now or over the next 3–5 years. Pairs beautifully with roast duck, pork dishes, charcuterie, mushroom recipes and grilled poultry.
