Country: Austria
Region: South Styria
Terroir: Schist, Quartz

Added SO2: None
ABV: 12.5%
Description:
From Karl and Eva Schnabel comes this magnificent (and now 10-year-old) zweigelt, grown on the Kreuzegg vineyard of their beautiful property in southern Styria.
As is customary for the domaine, the fruit here was destemmed and macerated for about two weeks before being pressed off to old barrels for elevage.
Tasting today, it’s open and perfumed, medium-bodied and relatively mineral, with red fruit complemented by a subtle notion of wood and a hint of earthen tertiary nuance.
A brilliant and mature wine which we would recommend to lovers of Burgundy and more classical pinot noir.
