Almasy 65, Zweigelt 2017

The Almásy Collection is an exclusive portfolio of top-quality wines made from the grape varieties of central & eastern Europe – both classic & exotic – selected by Sarah Heller MW & Groszer Wein. Almásy: Wine Without Borders reaches back into the history of the noble Hungarian family Almásy. The collection reimagines the wine cellar that might have greeted guests to Bernstein Castle had the territory never been divided. It includes regional classics like bright, bracing Grüner Veltliner and juicy Zweigelt, but also historic sites and varieties too long overlooked, made with partners who share our goal of revitalizing this heritage. Each wine is named according to where it stands relative to Bernstein Castle, the symbol of this project to rebind broken ties. Zweigelt is named after the Austrian plant breeder Prof. Zweigelt, who created this successful cross of Blaufränkisch and St. Laurent. It is the most widely planted red wine variety in Austria.

The appealing fragrance of sweet cherries and berries, a hint of vanilla, balanced and inviting. The palate is full of lush fruit with silky tannins, expressive and forward, silky finish.
