Glatzer Carnuntum 'Dornenvogel' - Zweigelt

This is a 2019 Zweigelt red wine from Carnuntum, Austria. Walter Glatzer established his winery in 1987 in the renowned Austrian wine - growing area of Carnuntum, a place with winemaking traditions stretching back to Roman times. The grapes for this Zweigelt are harvested from old vines in their prime vineyard locations. After a three - week maceration, the wine spends 14 months aging in barrels. It offers intense flavors of dark fruits, licorice, and tobacco leaf, making it an ideal companion for freshly grilled burgers.

To enjoy this wine, simply uncork it and let it breathe for about 30 minutes before serving. It tastes best when served at a cool room temperature, around 60 - 65°F. Keep the wine away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Once opened, re - cork it tightly and store it in the refrigerator. Try to finish it within 2 - 3 days to maintain its flavor.
