I’m a big fan of Austria’s Zweigelt reds, and the beautiful acidity and fresh berry fruitiness of the 2013 Johannes Zillinger Velue Zweigelt will make you one, too. Made with natural yeast and no added sulfites, Zillinger’s wines are some of the purest on the market. $22. Available at Parker’s Table.
