Zahel Orangetraube Orange T 2020

Tasting Notes

Zahel’s Orange “T” is composed of Orangetraube, a rare, aromatic varietal historically found in field blends. Translating to “Orange Grape,” for its orange tinge at peak ripeness,

Karl Georg Zahel selected the varietal out of their Gemischter Satz in 1966 and isolated it on its own — two generations later, Zahel is the only Austrian producer of single-varietal Orangetraube.

This is a dry wine, illustrating intense peach and apricot fruit, with spicy tones and elegant minerality. Fine acidity is well-balanced with subtle residual sugar.
