KOPOS Rotwein is a dry Austrian country wine and part of the KOPOS cooking wine range. It is based mainly on Zweigelt and Rössler and offers a fruit-driven, well-balanced style. The nose presents cherry, berry and gentle spice. On the palate the wine is medium-bodied, dry and pleasantly rounded, with soft tannins. Its clear structure makes it ideal for deglazing pans, for stews, ragouts and dark sauces. It also works well as an uncomplicated table wine for hearty everyday dishes.
In a busy kitchen, control is everything—Kopos is built for that kind of discipline: wines and a Maraschino chosen as cooking inputs, not sipping bottles. From kitchen red and white to Sherry Fino, Marsala, Madeira, Port and an Extra-Dry Vermouth, the range is meant to sit next to the stove as a predictable tool for your base, not a distraction....
Zweigelt is Austria''s leading red grape, producing cherry-scented wines with soft tannins, fresh acidity and gentle spice. It is a crossing of Blaufränkisch and St. Laurent.
The variety is appealing because it is juicy, versatile and food-friendly. Pair Zweigelt with roast chicken, pork, schnitzel, burgers, mushrooms and mild cheeses.
