Wine Description
Nomen est Omen: twist&drink represents the everyday fun, easy-to-drink side of wine, yet with a unmessed with, honest approach. This Zweigelt is as juicy and fun as it gets, lots of fruit, silky tannins, to be enjoyed chilled like a white. Thanks to its low-intervention approach, and vinification in stainless steel and old barrels, it shows lots of red berry fruit and great freshness!

Perfectly made wines can often seem smooth and soon bore us. So, here is our range of Wabi-Sabi wines: Wines with a certain roughness, wines with an edge.
In traditional Japanese aesthetics, Wabi-sabi (侘寂) is a world view centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection. The aesthetic is sometimes described as one of beauty that is „imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete“. It is a concept derived from the Buddhist teaching of the three marks of existence (三法印 sanbōin), specifically impermanence (無常 mujō), suffering (苦 ku) and emptiness or absence of self-nature (空 kū).
Characteristics of the wabi-sabi aesthetic include asymmetry, roughness, simplicity, economy, austerity, modesty, intimacy, and appreciation of the ingenuous integrity of natural objects and processes.
In today’s Japan, the meaning of wabi-sabi is often condensed to „wisdom in natural simplicity.“
