Lifted red cherry is suffused with the smell of wet oak leaves crushed underfoot. Hints of wood smoke and Darjeeling tea join these subtle notions. The palate is a picture of ease, like a watercolor that blurs gentle, red fruit edged with freshness, autumnal foliage, earthy tang and mellow spice. Yet all is framed with precision and poise. A light but knowing touch was at work here and has enabled this Zweigelt to attain gorgeous, Pinot-esque evolution.
