    • Blaufrankisch Classic

      The Classic is the starting point for the Igler Blaufrankisch wines.  Bold and spicy and blackberry, cassis and cracked pepper on the finish.  Great wine for burgers and brats on the grill.

    • St. Laurent Classic

      St. Laurent is thought to be a cousin of Pinot Noir.  The grape does share some similarities on the nose to Pinot, but in the glass it is a whole other animal.  Dark purple in color.  On the palate, more robust with black fruits instead of cherries.  If you are a Pinot lover, you need to try St. Laurent.  

    • Vulcano

      Vulcano is a cuvée of 60% Blaufränkisch, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Zweigelt and 5% Merlot.  Aged 15 months in French barriques.  The wine is dark ruby-garnet in color with delicate cherry tones on the nose. Erupting with red berry
      flavors and a medium-long finish slightly spicy finish.
