DOMAENE GOBELSBURG Zweigelt - The Domaene Gobelsburg Zweigelt is
distinguished by the Danube region, which is – in relation to red wine –
among the “cool climate” regions. Over the last several decades, the
Zweigelt grape developed a strong identity in Austria as well as in the
Danube region specifically, because Langenlois is the hometown of Dr.
Zweigelt, who created this variety. It exudes a shiny ruby red colour with a
light violet tone. The nose gives off fruitiness with hints of cherries along
with spicy nuances. Its full body with delicate notes make this wine a
popular food companion.
Description: Mature, plummy bouquet with a hint of cinnamon, rich and
engaging, really nestles on the palate; thoroughly dark tones, fat but
always fresh and lively, edgy, plum holds through the finish, interesting
structure.
SCHLOSS GOBELSBURG, a Cistercian monastic estate, is one of the oldest
wineries in the Austrian Danube area with a documented history that dates
back to 1171. All the vineyards are located on slopes and terraces around
the valley of the river Kamp near the town of Langenlois and the village of
Gobelsburg. Schloss Gobelsburg specialises in Grüner Veltliner and
Riesling and produces authentic and noble wines from different single
vineyard, village and regional appellations. The winery is member of the
association 'Österreichische Traditionsweingüter', which is working on a
vineyard classification project for the Danube area.
