Dornfelder Barrique

The wine

The color is dark red going into violet. Its bouquet has hints of sour cherry, blackberry and black currant. The traditional maceration of 10 days gives this wine structure and harmonic tannins in the finish. Several months in barrique barrels increase the flavor variety. Our goal: to create a fruity powerful and characterful Dornfelder for you. Cheers!

A late summer evening on the terrace, deep conversations and in the glass this wine, you will enjoy...

The vine

Dornfelder is considered a new breed among red wines. It is a cross between Helfensteiner and Heroldrebe. It has been registered in the list of varieties since 1980, and has been cultivated here as a trial since 1976. It is considered the most valuable and successful red wine variety among the new varieties. It is sought after for its fragrant fruit, mild acidity, richness of body and dark color.
