Kerschbaum Zweigelt 2023 0,75l

Kerschbaum’s Zweigelt shows just how compelling this variety can be in Mittelburgenland. Even in its youth, it offers a distinctly fruity bouquet that grows rounder and finer with time, while Falstaff notes blackberry, blueberry, spice and a touch of licorice. On the palate, it is juicy and taut, with well-integrated tannins, fine acidity and a cherry-toned finish. That interplay gives the wine its attractive balance of charm and structure. Traditional ageing keeps the varietal character in focus instead of covering it with excess oak. It is a versatile red that works beautifully with pasta and many savory everyday dishes.

Ageing in used barriques and large oak casks supports the cherry fruit with subtle, restrained spice.
