2025 Rosé Zweigelt, Weingut Bründlmayer
Kamptal, Austria
Cherry Blossom Snap
Pale, bright and wonderfully lifted, this is rosé with all the freshness you want and just enough detail to make it properly memorable. Sour cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry rise first, followed by violet, a hint of citrus peel and a gentle herbal note that keeps everything feeling taut and alive. The palate is crisp and juicy, with lively acidity, delicate red fruit and a fine, lightly spicy mineral edge that gives the wine shape and persistence. There is charm here from the first sip, but also a lovely sense of precision, making it feel elegant, refreshing and beautifully easy to drink.
For when: lunch stretches into the afternoon, and the bottle needs to disappear with suspicious ease.
Pairs with: grilled prawns, tomato salads, charcuterie, or simply something salty in the sunshine.
If this wine were a place: a shaded terrace in Kamptal, with bright flowers, cool air and a glass catching the light.
Weingut Bründlmayer is one of Austria’s benchmark estates, based in Langenlois in Kamptal and known for wines that combine precision, freshness and quiet confidence. The rosé is made from Zweigelt, Austria’s most widely planted red grape, and in Bründlmayer’s hands it becomes something far more refined than simple summer pink, all delicate fruit, floral lift and finely judged structure.
