Cool blend! Zwiegelt is just one of my favorite words, but also love the wine it makes. Don’t you feel cool saying ‘Zwiegelt?’ And in bubbly form no less. I digress… Great pale color and ripe fruit and floral aromas. Nice and tart, touch of sweetness that curves it all together. Strawberry, raspberry, some crust… good structure and bubbles.

Jul 28th, 2018Loimer NV Brut Rosé (SRP $32): This sparkler pours a vibrant salmon-pink color with a persistent mousse and fine, tiny bubbles. Composed of 58% Zweigelt, 35% Pinot Noir and 7% Chardonnay, the nose delivers freshly picked summer red fruits. On the palate, there are flavors of cherry, strawberry shortcake, rose water, jasmine and a trace of brioche. It’s fresh and crisp, with balanced acidity wrapped in a light, creamy texture, ending in a medium-long, flavorful finish. This is a delicious traditional method sparkler on its own, and yet a wonderful companion to Sunday brunch fare, sushi, grilled prawns, pan-seared tuna and more. Region: Niederösterreich, Austria. Other info: ABV 12%, sur-lie aging, full ML, aged in barrel and stainless, aged 10 months before bottling and one year in bottle, cork enclosure.
