Zweigelt

The Zweigelt grape bears the name of its creator. In 1922, Austrian Friedrich Zweigelt, who took over the running of the Klosterneuburg viticultural school when the National Socialists came to power, bred the adaptable, frost-resistant Rotenburger grape from Blaufränkisch and St. Laurent. The name combines the colour red with its place of origin, Klosterneuburg. Under the Quality Wine Grape Varieties Regulation of 1975, Rotburger was officially renamed Zweigelt . Today, this relatively young variety grows on just under 15% of Austria's total vineyard area. Little wonder, as the vine makes modest demands and gives high yields. For high-quality wines, particular attention must therefore be paid to regular canopy management and appropriate yield regulation. Zweigelt produces powerful wines rich in tannins and body, with berry aromas and intense colour — ideal for drinking young, ageing in barrique or using in blends.

A fragrance of plums, cherries and berry jelly, with a pleasant body and lively acidity.
