Salzl Sacris Zweigelt Reserve Neusiedlersee DAC 2020 13,5% Vol. 0,75l
£34.25
The Salzl Sacris Zweigelt Reserve Neusiedlersee DAC 2020 is an authentic, characterful red wine from Burgenland that combines the best of the Zweigelt variety. Produced by the renowned Salzl Seewinkelhof winery in Illmitz, this wine stands for the uncompromising combination of family tradition, loyalty to the terroir and modern vinification.
The Salzl Sacris is a single-varietal wine made from 100% Zweigelt grapes grown on loamy sandy soils with a high gravel content, known as paratschernosem – soils that are known for their powerful and structured red wines. The wine is vinified in the traditional way: with traditional maceration in stainless steel tanks at 30 °C, a maceration period of 18 days, followed by malolactic fermentation and a long maturation period of 24 months in new oak barrels. Bottled with natural corks and with a storage potential until 2031, the wine is a high-quality DAC Zweigelt that is both youthfully accessible and has excellent ageing potential.
Awards:
– 93/100 points A la Carte
– 92/100 points Falstaff
Tasting NoteIn the glass, the wine presents itself in a deep ruby red colour with a dark core. The bouquet is intense and complex with ripe sour cherries, dark berries, dried plums, accompanied by fine roasted flavours, cedar wood, vanilla and a hint of cocoa bean. On the palate, the wine is concentrated and velvety, with a ripe tannin structure, harmonious acidity and a dense, elegant body. The long finish is characterised by fruit, spice and fine wood – an expressive Zweigelt with depth and great character.
Acidity: 5 g/l
Residual sugar: 1.6 g/l
Drinking temperature: 16-18 °C
The Salzl Sacris Zweigelt Reserve 2020 is an ideal accompaniment to traditional meat dishes such as braised beef, game ragout, veal cheeks or duck breast with a herb crust. It also unfolds its full potential with savoury mushroom dishes, mature hard cheese or a strong chocolate dessert. In a large red wine glass, it is not only a culinary delight, but also makes an excellent gift or an enriching addition to any wine collection.
