{"title":"Zantho","description":"\u003ch1\u003e Buy or order Zantho wine\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\n \nThis beautiful Austrian winery owes its name to the original name of Andau (from records dating back to 1488). At that time, a salamander was featured on the label, a reference to the stunning natural beauty of this beautiful winery's vineyards. The salamander is still depicted on the label, as the natural beauty remains! Zantho Winery is a collaboration between renowned winemaker Josef Umathum and the cooperative Winzerkeller Andau. No fewer than 70 winegrowers collectively cultivate over 100 hectares in the best locations in the Andau wine region. The grapes are grown in their vineyards in Seewinkel, which is characterized by very dry, stony, and mineral soils. The region is one of the hottest and driest wine-growing areas in Austria, offering ideal conditions for producing distinctive red wines. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at 30-32°C, followed by traditional aging in steel tanks. A special feature of this wine is that it is vegan vinified, or \"vegan friendly\".","products":[{"product_id":"zantho-blaufrankisch","title":"Zantho Blaufrankisch","description":"A wine that will amaze you, because this Austrian wine is a major surprise in our extensive selection. When Austria was involved in a sulfite scandal in the 1980s, Austrian viticulture collapsed. The reputation of Austrian wines had sunk to an all-time low. Fortunately, Austrian viticulture is slowly recovering. White grape varieties, in particular, are making waves. However, the Zantho winery focuses primarily on red grapes, including Blaufrankisch. This is extremely popular in Austrian vineyards, particularly in the Burgenland wine region, not entirely coincidentally Zantho's home base.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The Blaufrankisch in Burgenland\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nAfter Blauer Zweigelt, Blaufrankisch is the most widely planted blue grape variety in Austria. Because it is highly susceptible to mold, it is primarily grown in southern and eastern Austria, including Burgenland. Here, the weather is relatively warmer and therefore less susceptible to mold. Zantho's vineyards are concentrated in Burgenland, an elongated province in eastern Austria. This province forms a geographical border with neighboring Hungary. Thanks to the unique microclimate and specific terroir, the grapes thrive.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Enjoy Zantho Blaufrankisch Burgenland\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThe vines that grow the mighty Blaufrankisch grapes have a terroir that combines dry stone and minerals. This combination is truly unique. The minerals, in particular, are readily apparent upon opening this bottle of red wine. A generous bouquet of blackberries and minerals awaits. The flavor is surprisingly juicy, yet with a slight bite. This ensures that Zantho Blaufrankisch never bores. The spicy finish is a true paradise for your taste buds. With its distinctive flavor, this Zantho red wine pairs perfectly with hearty meat dishes.","brand":"Wijntransport","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775874699343,"sku":"8927","price":10.89,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/zantho-blaufrankisch_8927.webp?v=1770111191"},{"product_id":"zantho-zweigelt-burgenland","title":"Zantho Zweigelt Burgenland","description":"The most prestigious blue grape, executed to perfection by Zantho. Thanks in part to the Zantho winery, Austrian wines are once again appearing in wine cabinets. Austrian wines were always quite popular until the 1980s. Failing wine regulations and the abuse of substances like sulfites were the cause of the Austrian wine crisis. This caused the complete collapse of the Alpine region's viticulture. However, the current legislation is among the strictest in Europe. Sustainability is also a top priority for many producers, such as Zantho. This Zweigelt from Burgenland is not only incredibly delicious, but it's also vegan-friendly.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The Blauer Zweigelt from Burgenland\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nAustrian viticulture is dominated by two grape varieties that have almost acquired a sense of national pride. First, there's the white Gruner Veltliner, which is increasingly being discovered by many wine enthusiasts. Then there's the Blauer Zweigelt. Together, these two grapes create a large area of ​​vineyards. Zantho's Blauer Zweigelt grows in the east of the country, in the province of Burgenland, just a stone's throw from the Hungarian border. This region experiences considerably higher temperatures than the rest of Austria. As a result, Blauer Zweigelt grapes develop exceptionally well here and possess a wealth of character.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The smell and taste of Zantho Zweigelt Burgenland\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThis red wine from Zantho puts the Burgenland wine region on the map. A single sip of this Blauer Zweigelt will tempt you to explore more of this breathtaking region in eastern Austria. The aroma is magical, almost fairytale-like. You smell dark, warm cherries and blackcurrants. A sultry hint of blackberry completes the whole. Smell again, and you'll even detect a hint of spicy cinnamon. The taste is breathtaking. It took us by surprise. We were already convinced of the quality Austrian wines can deliver, but this is top-notch quality. You'll taste delicate spices and pronounced fruit. This, combined with the balanced acidity and full finish, ensures we can truly call this a perfect wine.","brand":"Wijntransport","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775782883407,"sku":"8928","price":10.89,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/zantho-zweigelt-burgenland_8928.webp?v=1770111191"}],"url":"https:\/\/perfectewijn.be\/en\/collections\/wijnhuis-zantho.oembed","provider":"Perfecte Wijn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
