Black OX does not tiptoe into the room.
A bold blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Dornfelder and Tempranillo, it brings together juicy wild cherry, green pepper and a darker suggestion of chocolate. Beneath the fruit lies a distinctly spicy character, giving the wine depth without diminishing its generous appeal.
Powerful on the palate, with present acidity providing welcome lift and definition. The finish is long, composed and every bit as confident as the bottle suggests.
A red with presence—and no particular interest in playing quietly in the background.
Deep, dark red in the glass.
Juicy wild cherry leads the nose, followed by green pepper, dark chocolate and savoury spice.
Powerful and concentrated on the palate, with fresh acidity cutting through the ripe fruit. The finish is long, warming and attractively savoury.
Producer: Weingut Lergenmüller
Country: Germany
Region: Pfalz
Wine classification: Qualitätswein
Wine type: Red wine cuvée

Total acidity: 5.3g/L
Serving temperature: 14–16°C
Bottle size: 750ml
Serve at 14–16°C in a large red-wine glass.
Give it around 30 minutes to breathe before pouring. A little air helps the wild-cherry fruit open up and allows the chocolate, pepper and spice to settle into their stride.
Best placed at the centre of the table rather than poured as an afterthought.
Black OX has the power and savoury structure for richly seasoned meat, slow cooking and the unmistakable flavour of an open flame.
Serve with:
Rosemary-roasted lamb
Chargrilled rib-eye steak
Slow-cooked venison
Barbecued pork shoulder
Beef short ribs
Wild mushroom ragù
Smoky aubergine with spiced lentils
Manchego or aged Gouda
The juicy cherry fruit complements roasted and caramelised flavours, while its peppery, spicy character works particularly well with grilled meat and herb-led dishes.
Bring out the serious roasting tin.
