Tasting - Peter Mertes Sweet Red Dornfelder

Name: Peter Mertes Sweet Red Dornfelder
Variety: Dornfelder
Region: California
Country: Germany
Year: 2014
Price: $12.00

Shop 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: I thought the aroma of this wine was very strong in strawberry jam. It was very sweet from start to finish. The wine was also very smooth which makes me say the body was light and low in tannins. There was also very little alcohol heat which made this wine enjoyable. I had this without food.
