Review: The trademark German red grape varietal Dornfelder has a lovely purity
of soft red berry fruit. Integrated soft tannins combined with forward fruit
flavors make for a perfectly balanced everyday sipping wine. Great with grilled
red meat, sausage and chicken. Best served slightly chilled.
My Review: This was a full yellow color. The aroma smelled
like rotten fruit that retained some sweetness which also came through in the
aroma. The mid palate was asparagus and citrus with hints of lemon zest. This
was medium bodied but too sweet for my liking.
Food: This wine was tasted with no food due to tasting it at
the Vintage Cellar.
