Jamie nailed this one. Great structure and concentration. Only an hour on and just so pretty. Elegant but the body has some depth. Great acid, savory finish. Textbook A to Z... And then something else. Can't wait to see where my last two or three go in the coming years. Excellent wine! — 11 years ago
Introducing a friend to the dark perfume of Zweogelt, in a 1 ltr crown cap closure. I enjoy the the black sun inside the fruits, the medium-light tannins, and the snap crackle pop of good acidity here. Versatile food wine that surprises rookies how very delightful a decent Zweogelt can be! (Which is why these crafty Austrians made the Z from a hybrid of St. Laurent & Blaufrankisch...) — 11 years ago
I splurged on the bottle and left it in my wine fridge for two years. It was brilliant. This year most of the grapes were lost to a hail storm. Sad there wasn't more. — 12 years ago
Tasty dessert wine. Not as sweet and dense as a port. easy to drink. — 11 years ago
Dark red color. Cab nose, cab on palate at the start. Then with air the zin comes forward. The wine gets very chocolate-y in the center and is nicely oaky making this something to drink with a big smile. The fruit leans to the black fruits but is not too ripe, the structure is still there. It's drinking well but all that chocolate indicates there's no hurry here. Supposed to be Merlot in this but I don't/can't see it. Sorry I only have one more bottle. 2010 vintage — 11 years ago
This one was crazy out if the bottle. Aerated it twice and it calmed down considerably. Great body nice flavor acidity is right where it should be. Just enough jammy to compliment and not over power. A must buy again. — 12 years ago

Light golden appearance with a subtle buttery nose. Slightly acidic attack quickly leads to a well-rounded mid pallet, with a surprisingly (for a VA Chard) buttery finish. — 11 years ago
