Description
The 2020 Seifried Nelson Zweigelt had a very light crop and it only filled a small handful of barrels. e wine is concentrated with plum and cranberry flavours alongside notes of cedar. Lovely warm oak spices wrap around rich berryfruit weight on the palate. Enjoy!

Vineyard
Our Brightwater Vineyard is situated 15km from the coast and is sheltered from the south by the Richmond ranges. The ‘soil’ is a combination of rocks and boulders, which is very hard on the farm equipment, but vital for holding the warmth of Nelson’s sun and for ripening the Zweigelt grapes.
The Brightwater vines are grown in an extremely stony area of the vineyard, where water and nutrient levels are low. This helps us to restrict the plants vigour and to crop at low levels.
