Funkstille Zweigelt

.
We all need a little ‘Funkstille’ (radio silence) in our life now and again, am I right?

Kick back and take a moment to enjoy the Funkstille with a glass of Austrian Zweigelt from a sustainable vineyard.
(Check out our blog for more info on Funkstille and sustainable vineyards)

The dark berried Zweigelt grapes originate from carefully selected south facing vineyards, which yield a vibrant, luscious, and generous red wine. Great care and attention is done with canopy management in order to balance the leaf density of the plants and ensure adequate air-flow and healthy grapes. Harvest for the Funkstille Zweigelt occurs around mid-October.

Tasting Note

This cheerful, lively, and incredibly juicy red combines abundant red cherry, plum, and brilliant berry fruits; medium-bodied with superbly ripe and soft tannins and a hint of spice on the finish.

Why not pair this great red wine with it’s white wine siblings, the Funkstille Gruner Veltliner or the Funkstille Riesling?
