Treat recommendation from Die Rupps: genuine vintner's punch for the festive season

A cosy visit to the market calls for a hot drink of first-class artisan quality. True to the philosophy of cellar master Gerald Rupp – "Only good wine makes good mulled wine!" – family business Die Rupps from Höflein (Lower Austria) relies exclusively on the finest base wines and natural spice extracts rather than artificial flavourings.

For families, children and designated drivers, the winery recommends the 100% alcohol-free Apple-Cinnamon Children's Punch: naturally cloudy apple juice with genuine Ceylon cinnamon provides a warming treat without any regrets.
