2020 Zweigelt
Pronounced 'ts-vi-gelt', this grape variety was created by crossing the Austrian grapes Blaufränkisch and St.Laurent. We initially planted two acres in 1999 and, together with Ritchie Farm, have since expanded the plantings to six acres. It is one of a few varieties that can produce excellent red wines in a cool climate and we are one of a few BC wineries producing a varietal wine from it.
Naturally high in acidity, Zweigelt has great ageing potential. Drink now, or continue cellaring for a few more years.
