Paul Achs Zweigelt

Zweigelt from Burgenland – robust, juicy, with that typical dark fruit that the grape variety so reliably delivers. Paul Achs is one of the best-known winemakers on Lake Neusiedl and has been working biodynamically for years.

The winery is located in Gols, directly on the Pannonian Plain, where hot summers and the moderating influence of Lake Neusiedl ensure fully ripe grapes. The red slate soils and the mineral subsoil define the style: not heaviness for its own sake, but depth with lightness.

In the glass, a deep purple with violet reflections. The nose reveals cassis, ripe black cherry, and blueberry, along with a hint of dark chocolate. On the palate, juicy and direct, with a fine fruitiness and well-integrated tannins – nothing harsh or unpleasant. The finish is pleasantly long, with fruity spice.

Serving temperature 16–17 °C. Pairs well with grilled sausage, roast beef with onions, lamb chops, or a mature mountain cheese. If desired, it can also be stored in the cellar for another 2–3 years – its structure will hold up.
