Christina - Kuhlbar 2024
This chilled red is bursting with juicy red cherries and watermelon with a snap of green apple, this vibrant Austrian Zweigelt is summer in a glass. Delicate violet aromas add a floral lift, while the palate is juicy, fresh, and so moreish. It’s the perfect red for picnics, or just a sunny afternoon in the garden. Dangerously easy to drink—trust us, one glass won’t be enough.

Vinification
Carefully hand-picked at peak ripeness, this wine is crafted from a mix of whole bunches and destemmed berries. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at a gentle 24 °C, with 10 days on the skins to build depth and character. Only the free-run juice — the purest expression — is used. A natural malolactic fermentation softens the texture, followed by 4 months of ageing in stainless steel to retain freshness and clarity of fruit.
