About the Wine: This wine is made from a varietal called "Dornfelder" which is very obscure in America but it well known in Germany because the only reds that grow there are Dornfelder and notoriously unpalatable Pinot Noir. I don't know why it is not better known in America, though I expect it has something to do with the fact that the name sounds like a Revenge of the Nerds character.
About THIS Wine: It is so light it might almost be mistaken for a blush. Plum is heavy on the nose and delivers on the palate along with tart raspberry. The plum lingers in a velvety finish.
Drinking This Wine: This is a bit too sweet for a food wine, but it could go with spicy or salty snacks. Otherwise it is a pleasant sipper.
Overall Impression: The wine is okay and it is cheap. This one is good for the price.
