Zeronimo Zweigelt is a non-alcoholic red wine from Austria’s Burgenland region, made entirely from Zweigelt grapes. From Neckenmarkter Hochberg’s 50-plus-year-old vines, it spends 15 months in small oak barrels before gentle dealcoholization by vacuum distillation and aroma recovery. Blackberry and cherry give it generous fruit, with vanilla, oak spice, rosemary and black tea adding a savory edge. Dry and textured, it has the character to sit comfortably at the dinner table.
Why We Love It
This is the red we’d put in front of someone who wants fruit without a sweet finish. The cherry and blackberry draw you in, then the rosemary and black tea give you a reason to slow down and take another sip. We like it best after it has had a little time to open up in the glass. It feels considered without asking you to make a ceremony of drinking it.
Give the savory dishes a turn: pour it with mushroom risotto, tomato-based pasta, pizza with olives and herbs, grilled vegetables, miso-glazed eggplant or lamb. Earthy, umami-rich and herb-forward food suits it especially well.
