Vinification of the Setzer Zweigelt Winery

This wine clearly focuses on one grape variety, and that is Zweigelt. For this wonderfully balanced single-varietal wine from Weingut Setzer, only first-class grapes were used. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Lower Austria. The vines here dig their roots deep into soils of sand and limestone. After the grape harvest, the grapes quickly reach the winery. Here they are sorted and carefully broken up. Fermentation follows in large wood at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by aging for several months in oak barrels.
