The Pöckl Zweigelt 2021 is a characterful red wine from Burgenland that is a prime example of modern Zweigelt style with its juicy fruit, accessible structure and elegant ageing. It comes from vineyards rooted in loamy gravel soils - a soil structure that lends the wine both minerality and freshness. As part of the fruit-orientated range from the renowned Weingut Pöckl, this vintage is immediately enjoyable to drink, yet can be stored until at least 2029.

The grapes for this Zweigelt are carefully harvested and then matured for six months in used barrique barrels, which gives the wine structure and complexity without losing its youthful freshness. With an alcohol content of 13% vol., the wine is balanced and lively - ideal for lovers of elegant, not overloaded red wines. The practical screw cap ensures uncomplicated enjoyment and preserves the freshness of the wine right up to the last glass. Whether for everyday enjoyment or as a fine accompaniment to food - the Pöckl Zweigelt 2021 is versatile and a real highlight of Austrian red wine culture.

Tasting Note

In the glass, the wine shines in a deep, dark ruby red colour with violet reflections. The nose is dominated by aromas of ripe heart cherries, accompanied by a hint of dark berries and a subtle spicy undertone. On the palate, it is juicy and round with beautiful freshness and lively fruit. Here too, the heart cherries clearly come to the fore, complemented by soft tannins and a fruit-accentuated finish that lingers on the palate for a long time.

The Pöckl Zweigelt 2021 is a versatile food companion. It goes particularly well with pasta with tomato sauces, roast poultry, pork medallions or a hearty snack. It also unfolds its fruity elegance excellently with light game dishes or a pizza with prosciutto. Thanks to its balanced nature, it is the perfect companion for social evenings or an uncomplicated dinner with friends. If you want to store it, you can also look forward to its charming development over the coming years.
