About this wine

Tasting Notes:
Sommelier's advice:

Maturation:
8 months in large wooden casks
Winemaking process:
Paul Achs farms about 25 hectares around Gols, near Lake Neusiedl, biodynamically and was a founding member of the Respekt group. The Zweigelt ferments in stainless steel and ages in large wooden casks. The grape itself was bred in 1922 by Fritz Zweigelt at Klosterneuburg, crossing Blaufränkisch with St. Laurent.
Vinoteka's note
Paul Achs farms biodynamically in Gols on the eastern shore of Lake Neusiedl, with the motto that man does not shape the wine, the soil does. This Zweigelt spends eight months in large wood. Deep purple with violet reflections, cassis, ripe black cherry and blueberry with a hint of dark chocolate, juicy and direct with well-integrated tannins. Serve at 14–15 °C with grilled sausages, roast beef or lamb chops; it will keep another two or three years.
“Medium complexity, delicately spicy, dark berryish fruit, vivid tannin, will benefit from more bottle ageing.”Falstaff · 91 / 100 · 2023
