2020 Far + Wide Zweigelt
Far + Wide explores varietals from the far reaches of the globe, like this Zweigelt, a grape indigenous to Austria. Though it might sound like it refers to money (especially if you’re fluent in Yiddish), Zweigelt is actually named after its inventor, a viticulturist who created it from a crossing between St. Laurent and Blaufränkisch. We’re thrilled to be able to source our grapes from a single vineyard where a warm and dry climate allows for fully ripened fruit and cool nights keep it from getting overripe. Aging in stainless steel and neutral oak highlight this variety that is known for producing fruit-forward, spicy reds that have medium body and silky tannins. Ideal with a slight chill, this aromatic red is lithe and food-friendly.
