Description

Product description for Hajszan Neumann Natural Zweigelt 2021 (bio)

Info

The Zweigelt vines come from two old plots in Ried Weisleiten in Vienna’s Nussberg and are planted on heavy, iron-rich soils. This is where the dark fruit character of the Zweigelt comes from. The mash fermentation and contact with the grape skins is delayed for a full nine weeks. The wines are then aged in concrete egg vats, a neutral container. After about six months, the wines are combined and bottled without the addition of sulfur. No fining or filtration follows.

Colour

Bright, dense ruby red with violet reflections.

Nose

The nose is reductive and clearly characterized by fruity to floral aromas. Elderberry, sloe, abundant red currant, as well as raspberry and blackberry dominate the picture. Violet and hibiscus add a great deal of elegance. White and black pepper add spice. It has an ethereal, balsamic-woody feel. Currant bushes, broken branches, fir bark, fir twigs and cones lend it both complexity and freshness.

Palate

On the palate, it absolutely matches my nose impressions. It is lean, racy, silky, and cool. With its high degree of delicacy, it is dominated by herbal aromas. Despite its fruit intensity, it is totally lean and based on acidity. Its crisp character is built on green, fresh aromas and almost unripe fruit. Broken branches come to the fore here, too. Zweigelt Natural loves this freshness and lightness—and so do we.
