Notes on the Wine
The Typical fruity and spicy character of the Austrian signature red wine grape Zweigelt develops at its best in the Burgenland wine-growing region. Medium - bodied and very juicy, with an intense cherry aroma.
Notes on the Producer
LANDHAUS MAYER has established a cooperation with the winegrowers of Lower Austria, who have been passionately dedicated to cultivating their prime vineyards for generations.
Gerhard J. Lobner, production manager of Landhaus Mayer, and the winegrowers jointly decide which steps to take in the vineyards. The vines are closely monitored from the pruning up to the optimal harvest time.
“I cannot even begin to describe the potential of these areas”, Gerhard J. Lobner enthusiastically says.
Due to structural change, many of the prime vineyards are highly endangered of being abandoned. Landhaus Mayer wants to take countermeasures and develop promising prospects with the local winegrowers.
