Graupert Zweigelt by Meinklang: Wild at Heart, Smooth in the Glass
‘Graupert’ is Austrian slang for someone who’s a bit unkempt—think shaggy hair and wild energy. Fittingly, Graupert Zweigelt comes from unpruned vines at Meinklang’s biodynamic farm, left to grow wild and free. No trimming, no taming—just nature doing its thing.
Surprisingly, these wild vines don’t just go rogue—they self-regulate. The result? Smaller berries with bigger flavor, and way more skin-to-juice ratio, which means you get a red that’s rich, textured, and full of personality.
But don’t let the backstory fool you—this Zweigelt is anything but unruly in the glass. It’s crisp, floral, and silky, with bright berry notes, gentle tannins, and a creamy mouthfeel that’s dangerously easy to sip. Think picnic in the park, sunset on the balcony, or Tuesday night pasta with a twist.
Meinklang’s wild child of a wine is both free-spirited and refined, proving that sometimes the best results come when you just let things grow as they are.
