Weingut Peter Schweiger is a small, family-owned producer based in the Kamptal region, which along with the Wachau is home to Austria’s most famous and highly regarded dry wines. Peter’s sixteen hectares of vineyards are planted to Grüner Veltliner, Riesling and Zweigelt, and are farmed sustainably, by hand.
Zweigelt is a cross between St. Laurent and Blaufränkisch, native to Austria and also it’s most planted red grape varietal. Typically provides a refreshing, juicy wine, full of cherry and blackberry fruit.
Peter Schweiger has nurtured this wine from very old vines in extremely steep and gravelly vineyards. Mostly small terraces which require a lot of experience, meticulousness and manual work.
