Dornfelder

Our wines using this grape variety are listed below.

A hybrid of Helfenstein and Heroldgrape, created 1955 by August Herold a German grape breeder in Pfalz and named after the vintner Imanuel Dornfeld. Since 1975 popular in all German wine areas. Supplies a dark red wine, sometimes even shows a touch of blue colour, with a prominent and fruity flavour. Remembered for the intense fruit aromas, like blackberry and sour cherry. Bottled and maked young, like a Beaujolais Nouveau, very little affected by tannin extract. All-round, a harmonic wonderfull red wine, it produced under quality conditions! A deep red temptation, served slightly chilled, is a great and popular wine in Germany.
