Tasting Note: This zweigelt drinks like a young, Northern-Rhône syrah on holiday in Burgundy.

Medium-intensity purple in color, this wine has an aromatic nose of red currant, red cherry, orange-citrus peel and red plum with hints of that primal, red-fruit quality one gets from Northern-Rhône syrah.

On the palate the dry, medium-plus bodied zweigelt delivers red fruit flavors suggested on the nose along with hints of apricot stone fruit backed by medium-plus acidity and ripe, slightly-velvety, medium tannin.

There is concentration and midpalate complexity.
