Grape Varietal & Region: A'kira T.FX.T is made from 100% autochthonous Blaufränkisch grapes. The grapes are sourced from selected vineyards in the Burgenland region, and reflects the elegance of the Blaufränkisch grape and the terroir of poor slate soils.

Winemaking Process: 18 months in 500 liter barrels and large wooden barrels
Tibor Szemes, FX Pichler and Manfred Tement joined forces in the mid-1990s. Connected by a deep friendship, they had the vision of a great Austrian red wine, into which all their experience should flow. Their passion for red wine and the model of great French red wines have inspired the T.FX.T trio to this joint project.
