Origin: Carnuntum, Austria

Grapes: Zweigelt

Alcohol: 13%

This vibrant Austrian red is made from organic Zweigelt grapes grown on family-owned plots near the River Danube. The warm local climate, combined with cool river breezes, allows the grapes to ripen perfectly while retaining their crisp, signature acidity. To create such a light and refreshing style, a portion of the handpicked fruit is pressed directly into juice, while the rest undergoes a brief period of skin contact before ageing in stainless-steel vats.

The final wine is a brilliant 'glou-glou' red that is best served chilled. It is light-bodied and crunchy, packed with bright flavours of juicy red cherries, watermelon, and a refreshing snap of green apple. With a delicate floral hint of violets and a beautifully balanced finish, it is a dangerously drinkable bottle that is absolutely made for picnics and sunny afternoons in the garden.
