Leth Blauer Zweigelt Klassik

Although Leth has specialized in white Austrian wines for 60 years, it is also adept at producing red wines. Take this Leth Blauer Zweigelt Klassik as an example. Austria went through a difficult time around the 1980s. Due to a massive sulfite disaster, the Austrian wine market completely collapsed. Fortunately, it has recovered from its slump. Wineries like Leth have contributed significantly to this. For example, Weingut Leth has stopped using pesticides on its vineyards since the mid-1990s. This is what determines the purity of its wines.

The Zweigelt in the Austrian vineyards

Zweigelt is the red equivalent of Gruner Veltliner, the white grape variety that has dominated Austrian vineyards for decades. Zweigelt is the leading red grape variety. It thrives in Austria's varied climate. It also imparts a great deal of intensity to the wines, leading them to be considered true powerhouses. Because Doro Weingut Leth doesn't age its Zweigelt in oak, it remains wonderfully accessible and appealing to the average wine drinker.
