Neusiedlersee: The Diversity of Zweigelt – Strong Wines. Great Names.

Everything is possible in the Seewinkel, another name for read more...the wine area of Neusiedlersee, or Lake Neusiedl. In fact, Seewinkel means, literally, "corner of the lake". There, at the edges of this vast, shallow lake, a variety of white, red and sweet wine grapes ripen on 9,100 hectares of vineyards. The range comprises dry, fresh wines as well as full-bodied and aromatic wines - and of course, the area’s world-famous sweet wines. Also noteworthy is that over the past few years, the diversity of Zweigelt has come into full bloom.

Neusiedlersee-Hügelland: Fabulous. Delicious. Premium. Red, White and Sweet Wines.

At the foot of the Leithagebirge, west of the Neusiedlersee (Lake Neusiedl), is the Neusielersee-Hügelland, home to the talented all-rounders of Austria´s wine growers. With 4,150 hectares of vineyards, no other wine-growing area features such a variety of wines. And one of them - the renowned Ruster Ausbruch – is a sweet wine that not only reflects strong regional identity, but also is heralded all around the world. In the Neusiedlersee-Hügelland, young wine-growers – both men and women – combine innovative thinking with respect for long-held traditions.

Mittelburgenland dac: Racy Red Wines. Blaufränkisch with Character.

On 2,100 hectares of vineyards in the Mittelburgenland area, one red grape variety plays the leading role: Blaufränkisch. The DAC wines here reflect origin through the most typical expressions of area and varietal. Four towns act as the wine-growing area´s main producers: Deutschkreutz, Horitschon, Lutzmannsburg and Neckenmarkt; these, as well as two modern cooperatives, prove that size and high quality can indeed go hand in hand.

Südburgenland: Idyllic Landscape. Expressive Red Wines.

One of Austria´s smallest wine-growing areas has plenty to offer. Indeed, excellent terroir wines are produced from only 500 hectares of vineyards, which are situated mainly on the Eisenberg. The typical red wines of the area, particularly Blaufränkisch, exude a mineral-based spicy flavour. Elegant and savoury whites make their mark as well, as does the quaint and unusual Uhudler wine.    (hide)

Powerful mineral, earth and to a lesser extent, smoke and moss flavors. The fruit is present, but thin. Interesting. Would nicely accompany a meal of beef rouladen and dumplings. A fairly priced table wine.

Some weeks ago I tasted the Zweigelt from Weingut Berger Leginthov. I was surprised - the Zweigelt was excellent. The colour was dark red and it tasted very fruity. I believe it smelled like fresh berries. I am sure I have...

blackcurrent and loads of spices on the nose, very ripe tannins due to excellent vintage 2000, refined, multilayered, needed nearly 5 hours with air to develop full flavor profile, endlessly lingering. Perfect wine.

Beautiful Blauer Zweigelt from Anita & Hans Nittnaus. Juicy red fruit, lip smacking sour cherry and some really soft, smoky oak under the surface. I really can't think of a nicer wine for a delicate charcuterie selection.
