Pirates of Palatinum Oak & Steel Cabernet Sauvignon - Lergenmüller

The Oak & Steel Cabernet Sauvignon, aged in barrel and originating from the winegrowing region of the Palatinate, presents itself in the glass in a bright purple red. This single-varietal German wine caresses the glass with wonderfully expressive notes of blackberry, black cherry, mulberry and damson. Added to this are nuances of dark chocolate, gingerbread spice and cinnamon.

This German wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor profile. It was bottled with only 6 grams of residual sugar. This is a genuine quality wine that clearly stands out from simpler qualities and thus this German wine, despite its dryness, enchants with the finest balance. Flavor does not necessarily need a lot of sugar. On the palate, this well-balanced red wine is characterized by an incredibly velvety texture. Thanks to its lively acidity, the Oak & Steel Cabernet Sauvignon reveals itself on the palate as exceptionally fresh and vibrant. On the finish, this wine from the Palatinate winegrowing region ultimately impresses with considerable length. Once again, hints of blackcurrant and mulberry appear.

Vinification of the Lergenmüller Oak & Steel Cabernet Sauvignon

The well-balanced Oak & Steel Cabernet Sauvignon from Germany is a single-varietal wine made from the Cabernet Sauvignon grape variety. After the harvest, the grapes are brought to the winery as quickly as possible. There they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks and small wooden barrels at controlled temperatures. Vinification is followed by aging for several months in oak barrels.
