Modra Frankinja is also known as Blaufränkisch. And Lemberger. And Kékfrankos. And Jubiläumsrebe. And even Sirokolidtnyj…
Pullus Modra Frankinja 2011, Stajerska, Slovenia (£9.95 Winety)
Refreshing red wine, juicy and sappy, with a slightly earthy undercurrent to the fresh cherry and blackberry flavours, and a slightly leathery, rustic note on the finish. Wouldn’t object to a 15-minute spell in the fridge on warm days. B
