Tasting-"Sweet Red Dornfelder"

Name: Peter Mertes 
Variety: Sweet Red Dornfelder
Year: 2014 
Region: NA
Country: Germany
Price: $6.95 

Vintage Cellar ReviewWine Spectator "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: The Sweet red was a softer dark red color. The wine was thick and smooth and had a scent of perfume. The taste was lovely with just the right amount of sweetness, mixed with hints of blackberries and raspberries. I really enjoyed this wine and would love to buy a bottle, I think it would honestly pair well with just about anything!
