Tasting - "Peter Mertes Sweet Red Dornfelder"

Name: Peter Mertes
Variety: Sweet Red Dornfelder

Region: California

Country: Germany

Year: 2014

Regular Price: $12

Sale Price: $6.95

Winery Notes:
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:

This sweet red wine smelled like a cross between cherries and strawberries. The wine tasted sweet at the beginning. Towards the end, the wine tasted more sour, and felt dryer. This wine was tasted without food.
