90 parker points for ZANTHO!
In the August's issue of the "Wine Advocate" edited by Robert M. Parker jr., wines from Austria have been tasted. Our Zweigelt 2003 and our St. Laurent 2003 could find the tasters approval:
ZANTHO St. Laurent 2003: 90/100 "…enticing, smoky, black raspberry and sweet nut oil aromas. Plush and creamy on the palate with ripe fruit of restrained sweetness but wonderful mouth coating character, this medium-bodied example of St. Laurent's Pinot- and Mourvedre-like charms carries lovely salty, nutty traces along with black raspberry and dark cherry in the finish. What a pleasure to encounter an inexpensive Austrian red so lip-smackingly delicious yet in the right ways understated (not oaky, over-ripe or over-extracted, and moderate in alcoholic) as is this. A terrific value..." ZANTHO Zweigelt 2003: 89/100 "...aromatic combination of candied red fruit and bracing freshness not unlike that of Zinfandel, and a sheer juiciness, along with warm spiciness and notes of white pepper that are reminiscent of Grenache. With medium body and sappy red fruits reverberating in the mouth, this excellent value commands your attention and merits a second glass. The finish is juicy and full of fruit..." |
