This is the wine Christoph Wachter puts his family name behind — Béla-Jóska, named for his two grandfathers, is the flagship of the estate. It draws on parcels across Deutsch Schützen and the Eisenberg hill itself, blending fruit off iron-rich clay and the region's famous green slate. That combination is the whole point of Eisenberg, which translates literally to "iron mountain": you get a Blaufränkisch that tastes genuinely ferrous and savory, spicy rather than sweet, built for the cellar. Fermented with native yeast and aged in large neutral oak with no new-wood makeup, it's the estate's signature regional cuvee, its most representative bottling (the single-vineyard wines are more concentrated and age-worthy) while staying firmly in the cool-climate, medium-bodied register. Pre-Arrival, arriving mid-July.

Wine Enthusiast

92 points

"Elegant and expressive, with a core of cherry and cassis framed by gamey and earthy nuances. Subtle lilac aromas emerge as the wine opens, adding aromatic depth. The palate is lively, with bright acidity and well-integrated tannins providing structure, carrying through a long, refined finish. Layered, harmonious, and vibrant, showcasing both power and finesse." —Aleks Zecevic

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast venison, braised short ribs, duck with cherry, or a paprika-heavy Hungarian goulash. Mushroom dishes and grilled lamb work beautifully too.

Tasting Profile

Dark berry and blackberry lifted by violet and black pepper, with an unmistakable ferrous, savory minerality. Medium to medium-full body, fresh cool-climate acidity, firm but fine-grained tannin, and a long spicy finish. Not jammy — structured and built to unwind over years.
