Spätburgunder trocken 2018 - Thorsten Krieger

The Spätburgunder from Thorsten Krieger from the German wine-growing region Rhodt in the Palatinate is an elegant, pure grape variety and strong red wine.

In the glass, this wine has a bright ruby red with bright red highlights. Already the bouquet takes the nose with multi-layered aromas of juicy cherries, ripe blackberries and sun-ripened plums. On the palate, too, this red wine has a fruity fullness and is covered with velvety tannins and a strong body. The pleasant finish completes this wine from the Palatinate perfectly.

Vinification of the Weingut Krieger Spätburgunder

The Spätburgunder grapes grow on a mixture of clay, sand, marl and clay in the Southern Palatinate.

First, the berries are harvested selectively and immediately brought to Thorsten Krieger's wine cellar. There the grapes are macerated at a controlled temperature. The mash is then gently pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks. This red wine rounds off harmoniously after the fermentation process in oak barrels.
