2024 Gober & Freinbichler Chill

A breezy, light-bodied red cuvée of Zweigelt, Merlot, and Blaufränkisch from organically grown grapes. The Zweigelt provides force and dark fruit, while Merlot and Blaufränkisch contribute mid-palate weight and herbal complexity. Grapes are harvested early for lower sugar levels, resulting in a transparent, elegant wine at only 11.5% alcohol. After brief maceration, the wine is quickly pressed and spontaneously fermented in stainless steel tanks, then matured in steel. Bottled unfined and unfiltered with minimal added sulfur. This graceful, buoyant natural wine is built for easy, joyful drinking and is best served chilled at 8-10°C.
