Description
In a nutshell:
A rich, deep and fruit filled Kiwi red made from a quintessentially Austrian grape.
The lowdown:
The deep dark red tone and dense dark fruit aromas of this really set the scene for what's to follow. The palate is full of weighty rich fruit especially dark, ripe plums. Theres also hints of Christmas cake and mocha to round it out further. The tannins are generously well-proportioned giving it all a well put together feel. You don't see much Zweigelt from New Zealand and it's probably no coincidence that Hermann Seifried, the estate's founder, is, in fact, Austrian by birth.
The Producer:
Seifreid Estate is one of the pioneers of the South Islands wine industry. It was founded back in 1973 by Austrian born Hermann Seifried and his Kiwi wife Agnes in Nelson, one of the sunniest parts of New Zealand. Starting out with just a couple of hectares of vines theyve grown over the years to where they now have over 325 hectares and while one of the countrys significant producers, theyre still a family-owned concern. As a wine region Nelson sits a little in the shadow of its neighbour, Marlborough, at the top on the South Island, but thanks largely to the efforts of Hermann Seifried it has carved out a reputation that is certainly its equal.
When to drink:
Pairs really well with lamb and poultry dishes especially mildly spicy recipes.
Suitable for Vegans
