MA Arndorfer Mitges

Zweigelt gives a simple fruity rustic quality and Pinot Noir brings structure, tannin and mineral seriousness.

Producer Information

Martin started to produce his first vintage in 2002 after practical training in Italy and being inspired by the complexity and diversity in wine. He got the chance to choose the vineyards he wanted to work with on his parents’ estate, namely, ones with old vines and on the best hills of his village.

Anna joined him in 2009 and in 2012 they took over the winery from his parents and now manage 16ha in total. They believe that nature is the strongest force and that the soil is the most intelligent part. They believe that the plants nourish the soil and they adopt a totally minimal intervention approach.

Wine Making

The grapes were manually harvested and destemmed, before a 10-18 day maceration. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeasts. The Zweigelt as matured in large barrels and the Pinot Noir was matured in 3 year old barriques for 5 months. Bottled unfined, unfiltered and with minimal sulphur.

Tasting Note

Zweigelt gives a simple fruity rustic quality (blue-and-blackberries). Pinot Noir brings some structure, tannin and mineral seriousness.

Food Matching

Great with pate, terrines and grilled meats.
