Hundsdorfer
Hundsdorfer operates in Mittelburgenland, the heart of Burgenland's red wine country in eastern Austria. The winery focuses on Bordeaux varieties and indigenous Austrian grapes, blending them into structured reds. Canis, a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir, and Zweigelt, represents the house style—a marriage of international and regional character. The Cuvée Canis Reserve deepens this approach with Blaufränkisch in place of Pinot Noir, adding the peppery grip native to the region. A varietal Merlot Reserve rounds out the portfolio, showcasing the potential of a single grape in this continental climate. Falstaff has rated these wines, recognizing their balance and depth. Mittelburgenland's warm days and cool nights create conditions suited to both Bordeaux grapes and Austria's signature dark varieties, and Hundsdorfer's selections reflect that terroir.
