Weingut Muster, Zweigelt vom Opok, Steirerland, Austria
"To fundamentally change things, you must see the world through different eyes." Maria and Sepp Muster farm 10 hectares of vines in Styria, southern Austria, biodynamically, in tune with nature. Their wines are precise, elegant and fabulous.
The Muster's vineyard work has been an inspiration to many, and their minimal intervention winemaking methods they adopted in the 1990s, and have been developing ever since, broke away from the overtly (excessively?) technical methods prevalent at the time. They are makers of Styria's "most delicate and nuanced" wines according to Simon J Woolf (The Morning Claret).
This red, made from Zweigelt, is vivid and bright with flavours of wild cherry and plum.
