Discover the grape variety: Zweigelt
Supple and fruity reds with a vivid ruby colour, soft tannins and snappy acidity, with aromas of sour cherry, raspberry, red plum and gentle spices. Made as easy-drinking young reds and as more structured, oak-aged cellar wines. The most planted red variety in Austria (Burgenland, Carnuntum, Neusiedlersee), created in 1922 by Friedrich Zweigelt in Klosterneuburg, a cross of saint laurent × blaufränkisch.
