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.

The craft-pressed Organic Red Glühwein from Die Rupps is made from the finest Austrian organic red wine and traditional spice extracts of cinnamon and cloves – full-bodied, velvety and authentic in flavour.
