Judith Beck PINK Rosé

$25.00

Burgenland > Austria

Zweigelt and Blaufränkisch, 2025

Judith (OO-dith) Beck is one of the “It girls” of the Austrian natural wine scene. Most of the grapes for her darling rosé come from the bottom of the biodynamically farmed vineyard hill, as here the grapes have a little less sugar and a bit more acidity – Judith prefers to keep the grapes from the slopes for the red wines. Grapes were hand-harvested early to ensure freshness and bright acidity. 90% of the fruit was direct-pressed while 10% of Blaufrankisch was saignée (free run juice). The varietals were vinified separately and later blended. Fermentation began with native yeasts and the wine aged in stainless steel tanks at low temperature on its fine lees for 4 months before bottling. This wine freaking rocks!

The Story: The Judith Beck estate is based in the Burgenland commune of Gols, in the Neusiedlersee region, on the eastern – and warmest — side of the Lake Neusiedl, at the border of Hungary. Judith’s parents, Matthias and Christine Beck, founded the family estate in 1976. Judith Beck made her first vintage in 2001 and in 2004 she assumed full control of the winery. Badass alert! In 2007, Judith converted the entire estate to Biodynamic viticulture, following the principles of fellow Austrian - Rudolf Steiner. Judith cultivates 20 hectares of vines in the vineyard sites of Altenberg, Gabarinza, Salzberg and Schafleiten. 70% of the area is planted to red varieties –  Zweigelt, Blaufrankisch, St. Laurent, Pinot Noir --with the remaining 30% planted to white varieties – Welschriesling, Neuburger, Pinot Blanc and Chardonnay. Vines are planted at high densities of up to 7,000 vines per hectare to limit yields and ensure ripe fruit at harvest time. Soils range from sand, loam and clay on the lower vineyards to limestone, higher up on the ridges. The diverse soils form the ideal basis for complex, multi-faceted wines that reflect their stunning origin.

Personality: Bright hue, enticing, vivid aromas and flavors of red cherry, raspberry, and currants. This is a refreshing and pure rosé!

Harmony: Pair with crab cakes or a classic roast chicken and white rice.
