Kracher Zweigelt 2020 14% ABV 0.75l online kaufen

The Kracher Zweigelt 2020, with an alcohol content of 14% vol. in a 0.75-litre bottle, is a characterful Austrian red wine that bears the unmistakable signature of the renowned Kracher estate. As a grape variety, Zweigelt is regarded as the flagship of Austrian red wine production – and in this interpretation, it combines power, elegance and regional character at the very highest level. The wine impresses with its meticulous vinification, in which the grapes are harvested with great care and processed gently. The ageing process emphasises both fruit and structure in equal measure, resulting in a multi-layered, balanced red wine that perfectly reflects the character of Burgenland.

With the 2020 vintage, Kracher demonstrates once again that the family sets the standard not only in the sweet wine sector but also in the red wine segment. This Zweigelt is a prime example of precise fruit handling, harmonious balance and finely tuned tannins. Thanks to its structure and well-integrated acidity, it unfolds further with every sip, proving that Austrian red wine can hold its own on the international stage.

Tasting Note

In the glass, it displays a deep ruby red colour with violet hues. On the nose, typical aromas of sour cherries and ripe cherries unfold, accompanied by a delicate floral freshness and subtle hints of vanilla. On the palate, it is juicy and rounded, with subtle spice and nuances of plums and dark berries. The tannins are soft and well-integrated, whilst the moderate acidity ensures a harmonious balance. The finish is elegant, balanced and long-lasting, with a subtle fruity depth that leaves you wanting another sip.

The Kracher Zweigelt 2020 is a versatile accompaniment to hearty meat dishes and aromatic cuisine. It is particularly recommended with a juicy beef steak, spicy spaghetti Bolognese or braised lamb with Mediterranean herbs. It also comes into its own with mature hard cheeses or a classic roast goose, as its fruit and spice harmonise perfectly with the intense flavours of the dishes. Served at 16–18 °C, it is at its very best – a characterful red wine for enjoyable evenings, festive meals or relaxing moments by the fireside.
