Zweigelt Mitterjoch

Birgit Braunstein

This single-vineyard Zweigelt from Birgit's idyllic Mitterjoch vineyard is a juicy, velvety, floral beauty. On the nose, all kinds of cherry notes tickle the brain with the brightest complexion of fruity. It is vernal and life affirming, charming and round and altogether playful. Serve at 16-18°C. Due to its juicy structure, this wine goes particularly well with flavourful dishes rich in alliums and mediterranean spice like a robust gazpacho or a stewed leg of lamb with herbs and garlic.
