2008 Pfaffl Austrian Cherry Zweigelt

2008 Pfaffl Austrian Cherry Zweigelt

Based on the label and my knowledge of Zweigelt, I was expecting cherry upon sipping this wine, but I also found bright, fresh red berries with spicy undertones along with the ripe cherries.  This inky wine is medium-bodied and at that affordable price point, could easily become one of my mid-week or BBQ, go-to wines.  Bonus – screwcap.

Wine Enthusiast: 87 points.

About $15.

This wine was provided to me for sampling and I’m adding to my repertoire.
