Weingut Zahel

Winery Zahel Orange T. 2020 - Demeter

Orange wine 12% vol.

The Orange "T" is made from 100% orange grape, a rare, autochthonous semi-aromatic grape variety most commonly found in Viennese Gemischter Sätze. The nose shows intense peach and apricot fruit with spicy tones and elegant minerality. The wine's fine, fresh acidity is well balanced with subtle sweetness, making it a perfect aperitif or ideal food accompaniment especially to a light meal.

Style: intense stone fruit, mild spiciness, fine-bred acidity, pleasant fruit sweetness, elegant, animating finish.

The Zahel winery is now run by the 4th generation, and the Viennese Gemischter Satz has always been the focus. 

About 30 years ago, the winery wrote "Wiener Gemischter Satz" on a wine label for the first time thus ushering in a renaissance for the business. 

 

Today, the winery is the only Viennese vintner to cultivate vineyards in all wine-growing zones of Vienna on approx. 30 ha of vineyards. The wine-growing regions in Mauer, Oberlaa and on the Nussberg are of particular importance here. 

 

Since the 2017 vintage, the Zahel vineyard and all its vineyards have been 100% certified organic. And since the 2018 vintage, the winery can count itself among the circle of Demeter vintners and is Vienna's only Demeter winery. For the Zahel Winery, biodynamics means preserving healthy soils and biodiversity in harmony with nature and man.
