Meinklang Zweigelt 2015
AustriaMeinklang is one of the darlings of the natural / hipster / sommelier set, and this wine lives up to its darling reputation. Biodynamically grown (Demeter certified) estate zweigelt was native fermented in neutral oak and small tanks. Highly perfumed black raspberry, downy thorns, underbrush, mushrooms, wild strawberry, potent white peppery channels down a medium bodied, streamlined palate. There's a slim mud of tannins around the sides that houses all this earthy, forested savouriness to a dusky cherry finish. Zweigelt is a friendly, bright grape, and here shows all of its earnest charm.Tasted: 10 April 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $30.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
