Neckenmarkt
Neckenmarkt produces wines from Mittelburgenland, Austria's premier region for Blaufränkisch. The winery's portfolio centers on this dark-skinned variety and its blends, which thrive in the region's continental climate and iron-rich soils. Potio Magica, a Blaufränkisch, represents the winery's expression of the grape's characteristic structure and dark fruit. Via Romana blends Zweigelt, Blaufränkisch, and Cabernet Sauvignon into a layered red. Terra Cognita Blaufränkisch offers a focused take on the varietal. Both Falstaff and Wine Spectator have assessed the winery's output, with the top releases earning ratings in the low 90s. Mittelburgenland's volcanic terroir and warm days create conditions for ripe, age-worthy reds—wines that balance ripeness with the mineral precision the region is known for.
