Drink
Zweigelt!
 
Enjoy some wine 
An unassuming red just became your Summer wine for the entire season!
  • Zweigelt is fun to say and fun to drink. Don't spoil it by taking it too seriously. Fritz Zweigelt created this eponymous grape varietal by crossing Blaufrankish and Sankt Laurent. It is now the most widely planted red varietal in Austria.
  • Vineyard managers love it because it combines strengths of its parents; late-bud breaking and frost resistant with early ripening. But we love it because it combines the strengths of its parents; cherries, berries, smoke and spice with a food-friendly acidity married to black fruits, wonderful silky texture and white pepper from the Blaufrankish.
  • Zweigelt is a red I especially turn to it in the summer. Its fruitiness, good acidity and low tannins make it one of the few reds not fazed by the heat of the day.  Perfect for a picnic, some come in liter bottles -the Steininger come with a glass stopper that doesn't even require a corkscrew -delighful!
