Name: Peter Mertes Sweet Red Dornfelder
Variety: Dornfelder
Region: California
Country: Germany
Year: 2014
Price: $12

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: Ruby-colored. Aromas of perfume, berries, and slightly floral. Sweet, but not overwhelmingly so, on the palate. Flavors of strawberries and other juicy red berries. I enjoyed this wine and think it can be easily consumed on its own.

I tasted this without food.
