WINE DESCRIPTION

Heinrich Zweigelt is a red wine produced by the Heinrich winery in Austria's Burgenland region. The wine is made from the Zweigelt grape, which is known for its versatility and ability to produce wines with a range of styles. The vineyards where the grapes are grown are located on the slopes of the Leithaberg Mountains, which provide ideal conditions for the grapes to ripen slowly and develop complex flavors. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, and aging in large oak barrels to enhance the wine's structure and depth. The resulting wine is a medium-bodied red with notes of red fruit, spice, and a hint of earthiness, making it a versatile pairing for a range of dishes.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Heinrich Zweigelt is a full-bodied red wine with bright cherry and raspberry aromas, accompanied by subtle notes of clove and black pepper.On the palate, the wine is ripe and round with a soft and velvety texture that carries through a long, pleasant finish. It is an excellent accompaniment to a variety of dishes, from roasted meats to aged cheeses.
