"Freienfeld" Cabernet is a single varietal Cabernet Sauvignon that represents the quintessence of quality winegrowing in Kurtatsch. Only when weather conditions have produced an optimal vintage is a "Freienfeld" produced.
In spite of its creamy texture it has a bracingly acidulous finish in which the flavour of southern fruit is accompanied by balsamic spice discreetly reminiscent of walnut.
On the palate, it has a velvety, extremely berry-like effect like a French Burgundy, and tones of fresh elderberries and wild cherries give the subtle fruit sweetness a succinct, finely-spiced structure.
Those who have a little patience and can cellar their "Kirchhügel" Cabernet for a length of time will be rewarded with tertiary aromas that are reminiscent of an oriental tea ceremony: cedar, suede, tobacco, roasted hazelnuts, sponge cake, and dried blackberries.
The approach to the palate is solid and lush, with a rush of fleshy dark wild berries, while nuanced tannins give the round body a stable balance and a good constitution for a lengthy aging in the bottle.
A fresh, fruity white wine, COLOR: Yellow with greenish reflections, RECOMMENDED PAIRINGS: As an aperitif, with light appetizers, white meats, and fish.

This wine, which is both spicy and lively, is reminiscent of a freshly mown Alpine meadow. The high mountain acidity is harmoniously interwoven with the fruitiness, yielding flavors of yellow peaches, honey, nutmeg blossoms, hazel nuts, and peach blossom tea.
In these, the tiniest of seedless grapes, there is a breathtaking concentration of aromas that are reminiscent of oriental fruit and spice markets, spicy tannin contour that initiates a provocative liaison with aromas of roses, cinnamon, rose hips, and orange peel.
