2024 Blauer Zweigelt Winery Pawis 

It is safe to say that the Zweigelt from the Pawis Winery is one of the staples on the Friedrich wine list. The 2024 vintage marks the third consecutive year it has featured there. With its moderate alcohol content and varietal character, this red wine is a testament to the terroir of the Saale and Unstrut regions. 

This dry Zweigelt impresses not only with its deep, dark colour. The nose reveals wild berries and plum, whilst on the palate well-balanced notes of blackberry, black cherry and subtle woody hints unfold. A light red wine that goes down a treat, rounded off by flattering, velvety tannins. And whilst its predecessor came simply from the Pawis winery, this is now a certified VDP estate wine. Cheers!
