The typical Austrian Blauer Wildbacher grape produces fresh wines with aromas of currants and strawberries. They are often slightly spicy. Blauer Wildbacher is best known for its deep pink to pale red rosé. They are bone dry with refreshing acidity.
Although this blue grape is likely ancient, it's actually only found in the Austrian wine region of Styria. In West Styria, to be precise. More precisely: the wine village of Wildbach is considered its birthplace. There, they primarily make rosé from it, which they call Schilcher.
You can recognize it by the Lipizzan stallion often depicted on the label or cap. Some winemakers make a rosé sparkling wine from it, very exotic. Red wines made from Blauer Wildbacher are rare.
