This wine is a prime example of the fine art of red wine cuvée in Burgenland. It comes from the renowned Salzl Seewinkelhof winery, which is located in Illmitz on the eastern shore of Lake Neusiedl. For generations, the traditional family winery has stood for powerful, terroir-influenced red wines with an international style and Austrian soul. The name "Josanna" - Josef & Anna - is a tribute to Christoph & Verena Salzl's children
