It is planted in many regions, from cooler areas where it makes bright, crunchy reds to warmer Burgenland sites where it can become fuller and more velvety.Although it exists outside Austria, its international identity is still Austrian. The grape''s popularity comes from reliability in the vineyard and a taste profile that suits both casual drinking and carefully made premium wines.

These wines are made for early enjoyment and are very flexible with food.There are also richer reserve styles, often from warmer sites and matured in oak. In rosé form, Zweigelt can be fresh and berry-scented, while sparkling and lightly chilled red interpretations also suit its fruity personality.
