The Pfneisl Merlot JOE'S PLAYGROUND 2022 is an expressive Austrian quality red wine from Mittelburgenland, combining origin, personality, and terroir in an elegant interpretation of Merlot. Produced by the renowned Pfneisl Winery, this Merlot from Deutschkreutz comes from the top vineyard site Mitterberg, the plateau of the Deutschkreutzer Hochberg. The clay-rich soil imbues the wine with depth, juiciness, and mineral tension. This site is also Grandpa Josef's favorite vineyard, to whom this wine was dedicated, lending the local wine its special emotional touch.


The Pfneisl Merlot JOE'S PLAYGROUND is vinified dry and matures for 14 months in used barriques, which creates structure and elegance without overshadowing the fruit. With an alcohol content of 14.5%, the 2022 vintage is powerful, yet balanced and precisely harmonized. Its style combines ripe fruit with fine spice, mineral clarity, and well-integrated oak. Bottled with a cork, this Merlot from Burgenland presents itself as a sophisticated yet approachable food companion with clear origin and long-lasting harmony.
