Description
A surprise perhaps – red wine from Austria – this is a typical example of the “Kamptaler Zweigelt”. Delicate and elegant, this Zweigelt is a fantastic alternative to Beaujolais or Pinot Noir. Aromas of sour cherries with a floral touch but delivers a bold, fruity punch with gentle tannins, warm spice and long length.
Ideal with Grilled sausages, shepherd`s pie, burgers, roast chicken, grilled vegetables, pan-seared salmon, curries, tacos, Asian stir fries, charcuterie and cheese.
The Allram estate is in the heart of the Kamptal, in the picturesque Strass im Strassertale. Michaela Haas-Allram took over her parents business in 1992 and has since operated the winery with her husband Erich. Allram has been one of the leading wineries of the Kamptal for decades, with holdings in the famous vineyards of Heiligenstein, Gaisberg and Renner. For the owners, the main factor of producing exceptional wines is to be found already in the vineyards. Their strong family ethos extends to all areas of the winery – with Erich and son Lorenz sharing responsibilities in the vineyards and cellar whilst Michaela and daughter Magdalena are responsible for the commercial side. Michaela´s father Walter is still a regular visitor out in the vineyard. The harmony of the generations is at the root of the positive philosophy.
