✨ Tekniske specifikationer
While Weingut Tement is globally celebrated for its paradigm-shifting white wines, their dedication to Styria's terroir extends beautifully to their red varietals. The Zweigelt Selektion is a testament to this versatility, offering a cool-climate expression of Austria's most popular red grape. Developed in 1922 by Dr. Fritz Zweigelt as a crossing of Blaufränkisch and St. Laurent, the grape thrives on Tement's steep, limestone-rich clay soils, locally known as 'Opok'. Hand-harvested and crafted with the same biodynamic philosophy as their grand crus, this wine undergoes spontaneous fermentation and gentle aging in large, neutral oak casks. The result is a red wine of remarkable purity, balancing bright red berry fruit with a distinct mineral tension and savory undertones that reflect the dramatic Alpine-influenced climate of Southern Styria.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Det familieejede Weingut Tement blev grundlagt i 1959 og regnes i dag for et ubestridt referencepunkt i Südsteiermark, smukt beliggende på de stejle, dramatiske skråninger langs den østrigsk-slovenske grænse. Vingården opnåede international berømmelse under Manfred Tement og drives i dag videre af sønnerne Armin og Stefan Tement med en kompromisløs, certificeret biodynamisk tilgang. Vinmarkerne er rige på kalksten og koral-kalkholdig jordbund, hvilket danner grundlaget for husets verdensklasse Sauvignon Blanc og Morillon (Chardonnay). Vinene udmærker sig ved deres knivskarpe præcision, store lagringspotentiale og dybe terroirpræg, ikke mindst i de ikoniske enkeltmarksaftapninger fra berømte cru-parceller som Ried Zieregg og Ried Grassnitzberg.
