Christina Kuhlbar Red 25

The name says it all: Kühlbar is German for "chillable," and this is Christina Netzl's glou-glou summer red — a new addition to her natural range from the family estate in Göttlesbrunn, Carnuntum. 100% estate-grown Zweigelt (Austria's answer to Pinot Noir, with a little more edge) is hand-picked in late August, partially destemmed, and given a cool, gentle stainless steel fermentation to keep everything bright. Unfiltered and bursting with sour cherry, crunchy raspberry, and blood orange peel over fresh herbs, fine tannins, and juicy acidity. Give it a solid chill and pour it with pizza, charcuterie, barbecue, or nothing at all on a hot afternoon.
