Winery 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: Medium yellow color. Aromas of fresh apricot, melon, and pineapple. I did not find it to have red berry characteristics on the nose like the review above. It was initially sweet on the palate, with a slightly acidic mid-palate and notes of pineapple. I thought this wine was very well balanced and I would drink again, although it was not anything spectacular.
I tasted this without food.
