The Hillinger HILL 1 2020 is the first iconic top wine from the Leo Hillinger winery and marks the stylistic origin of the winery's high-quality cuvées. With the name HILL1, this bottling stands for uncompromising quality, a clear signature and a consistent focus on structure, depth and ageability. The cuvée of 50% Merlot, 25% Blaufränkisch and 25% Zweigelt combines international elegance with Austrian origin and harmonises the strengths of the individual grape varieties. The wine is matured dry and emphasises the claim of a powerful, long-lasting red wine from Austria that impresses with both precision and expression.


The Hillinger HILL 1 2020 matured for over 24 months in new French barriques and spent a total of 3 to 5 years in barriques, some new, some used. This long barrel maturation gives the wine depth, complexity and a clearly defined structure without losing its balance. With an alcohol content of 13.5%, the wine is dense and concentrated, yet always controlled and balanced. The ageing potential of 10 years and beyond underlines the claim of this wine as a serious classic of the Hillinger house. Bottled with a natural cork, a drinking temperature of 18 to 20 °C is recommended, whereby the wine presents itself particularly harmoniously at a serving temperature of around 18 °C.
