Haven't had a chance to try it, yet
"Heard a lot about Austrian wines, especially whites. But I like reds, thus I thought I'd give this one a try. Hope it's good."
2024 Von Lautinger Zweigelt
From Austria’s famed Niederösterreich region, this 2024 Zweigelt is a true expression of the grape’s homeland. Born in the Danube Valley, where cool northern winds temper warm days, the varietal flourishes with vibrant clarity and balance. In the glass, it shimmers a ruby-garnet hue, unfolding aromas of sour cherry, ripe strawberry, and a whisper of warm spice. Silky and harmonious on the palate, its subtle structure makes it as versatile as it is elegant. Pair it with Rosemary roasted duck, wild mushroom risotto, or a rustic charcuterie. Each bite is lifted by the wine’s bright fruit and gentle spice.

"Heard a lot about Austrian wines, especially whites. But I like reds, thus I thought I'd give this one a try. Hope it's good."
"I had never heard of this wine, but decided to try it. Both my wife and I loved it. We paired it with grilled pork chops and chilled it a little more than most reds we drink. Absolutely great. We ordered 4 more bottles of it yesterday."
"This is an elevated red for great drinking especially with food. It has depth and substance. It was a surprise to me, but this is a really lovely wine."
"Very much as described in the site description, a fruity red wine, reminiscent of Pinot noir or Beaujolais, but with a spicy element. Great for picnic's but really lovely with Burgers or more refined food."
"Typically Austrian wine, easy on the pellet"
"On the back label, the first sentence says it’s full bodied. The next sentence says it’s mild. It can’t be both. I don’t taste most of the fruit that they describe in the label nor do I detect any cinnamon. I came in three stars because it’s average."
"Might be my me favorite. . ."
"Very light with soft tanins"
"A very smooth wine. Perfect on the palette with whatever meal you are enjoying. One of my favorites."
"I am still waiting to hear back as to why an Austrian wine was bottled in France and included a French cork"
