Zweigelt
Type: red wine
Producer: Judith Beck
Region: Austria
A dark cherry red with a violet rim. On the nose, scents of cassis, dark cherry and dusty earth. On the palate, soft and round with well integrated tannins and a touch of spice. Look for an elegant and stony minerality. The finish is lingering and spicy making this a good food wine. Serve lightly chilled perhaps with Austrian chicken paprikosh, porcini potatoe fritters with lambs lettuce or a chunk of Pont-l'Eveque cheese.
