Oppenheimer Herrenberg Kalkstein Spätburgunder trocken - Weingut Manz

The Oppenheimer Herrenberg Kalkstein Spätburgunder from Weingut Manz in Rheinhessen presents a bright, light red color in the wine glass. Tilting the glass slightly, a transition of the wine color towards garnet red can be seen at the edges of this barrel-aged wine. Poured into a red wine glass, this red wine from Germany reveals wonderfully complex aromas of blueberry, plum, black currant and blackberry, rounded out by oriental spices, vanilla and dark chocolate contributed by aging in wooden barrels.

This red from the Manz winery is ideal for all wine lovers who like as little residual sugar in their wine as possible. However, it is never sparse or brittle, but round and smooth. Balanced and complex, this dense red wine presents itself on the palate. Due to the moderate fruit acidity, the Oppenheimer Herrenberg Kalkstein Spätburgunder flatters the palate with a pleasing feel, without lacking freshness at the same time. The finale of this red wine from the wine-growing region of Rheinhessen, more precisely from Oppenheim, finally convinces with good reverberation. The finish is also accompanied by mineral notes of the soils dominated by marl and limestone.
