“Selten Mulled Red” is our take on an alpine Glühwein (German, ‘Mulled wine’) that is inspired by an old family recipe from Salzburg, Austria. After mulling wine for decades, we understand what makes good mulled wines and what our customers generally enjoy in a mulled wine. Selten Mulled Red is created the same passion and attention to detail that we always had, but it’s now in packaging that allows businesses like you to share our passion with your customer – without the headache of making it all yourself.
| FAQs: | Answer | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Alcohol by volume (ABV): | 10.5% | |
| What base wine do you use for Selten Mulled Red? | Merlot | Merlot has low tannins which puts it in the dry wine category. Starting with a dryer base wine allows Selten Mulled Red to be sweet, but not get too sweet. |
| How would you describe the flavor? | Merlot base red wine, sweetened and spiced with traditional mulling spices and flavors. | Even if you did not grow up with mulled wines, the spicing should remind you of common holiday treats or apple ciders. |
| What makes Selten Mulled Red taste different than other mulled wines? | Selten Mulled Red does not use the ‘Star Anise’ spice. | This spice, which gives black licorice its distinct flavor, is sometimes found in mulled wines around Nuremburg and northern Germany. It is absent in our wine – we have found it’s absence doesn’t adversely impact the customer’s enjoyment of our wine. |
| What is the packaging size? | 20 Liter (5.28 gallons) kegs or 30 Liter (7.93 gallons) | We feel that Keykeg packaging is optimal for wine. The inner bag isolates the wine from oxidation and sunlight, which supports the shelf-life of the wine. |
| Do I need to buy lots of expensive equipment to serve Selten Mulled Red? | No. There are many ways to dispense from our kegs. We have done a lot of research over the years and provide a guide. | Check out our dispensing page to learn more about the different ways and find the option that best works for you! |
| Which gas do I need to use? | The kegs can be pressured with any gas type (including compressed air). For more information on this, check out our keg page: KeyKeg one-way kegs | Selten Mulled Red can be served still or charged with nitro gas, the resulting mouth feel is smooth and silky. |
