Lergenmüller Dornfelder Trocken 2023
JUICY BLACKBERRY, RIPE CHERRY AND GENTLE TANNINS. A FRUIT-DRIVEN PFALZ DORNFELDER WITH A POWERFUL CHARACTER AND VERSATILE, EASY-DRINKING STYLE.
A red-wine classic from the Pfalz.
Lergenmüller Dornfelder Trocken 2023 offers a layered aromatic profile led by ripe cherry and juicy blackberry. Its character is generous, fruity and powerful, with Dornfelder’s naturally deep colour giving the wine an intense black-red appearance.
Dornfelder is a crossing of Helfensteiner and Heroldrebe, connecting it to several important German red varieties, including Frühburgunder, Trollinger, Lemberger and Portugieser.
Matured in stainless steel to preserve its fresh fruit, this balanced Gutswein is an adaptable red for every season. Serve it at 16°C with hearty food, or slightly cooler during the summer months for a fresher expression of its dark-berry character.
A reliable red for almost any occasion.
Dornfelder has never been known to overcomplicate the invitation.
Tasting notes
Deep black-red with dark ruby and purple reflections.
Ripe cherry and juicy blackberry lead the layered bouquet, creating a generous and immediately inviting fruit profile.
Fruity and powerful on the palate, with moderate acidity, gentle tannins and plenty of dark-berry character. The finish is balanced, smooth and satisfyingly rounded.
