Dornfelder is an extremely popular German red grape that is based on four classic varieties: Lemberger (aka Blaufränkisch), Portugieser, Frühburgunder and Trollinger. It produces fruity, medium-bodied wines with deep colour and good acidity. Made in a medium-sweet, fruit-forward style, its lightly floral aroma and plush flavours of plums and cherries are well balanced by velvety tannins. It has an intense colour, lip-smacking flavour, and pairs well with a wide variety of foods.
