Thaya Zweigelt Natural Red Wine Organic Single Vineyard
From the Thaya estate winery in the Czech Republic, this single vineyard late harvest Zweigelt, which is called Zweigeltrebe in the Czech language and is a cross between Blaufrankisch and Saint Laurent, is from the Fládnická vineyard and which is in a national park. The wine was made naturally, fermented with native yeasts and aged in french oak barrels (60% new) for 18 months. A robust wine made from grapes with a late harvest ripeness. The color is a dark purple red color. The aroma is pleasantly fruity and spicy, moving into notes of licorice and wild animal. The palate is fruity, full-bodied and long. When tasting you will find it has a ‘little bit of everything’: acid, fruit, tannins and some saltiness. It will have you taking another sip to enjoy it more.

Thaya is built on the passion of South Moraviana native, owner Josef Trávníček and on the craftsmanship of winemaker Jakub Smrčka who make organic wines, many with native yeast fermentation, in South Moravia, along the Austrian border. They focus on many German and Austrian varietals, but also have some native to the Czech Republic, like Moravian Muscat.
