Mokelumne Glen Vineyards Lemberger(2005)

Lemberger, also known as Blaufränkish in Austria, is a crisp, fruity wine with a hint of spice. German literature describes the wine as "rassig", loosely translated as racy or superior. It received limited aging in Hungarian oak. This variety is relatively rare in the United States and is introduced as one of our two first red "German Collection" wines. Lemberger is frequently served with lighter red meats and sauces and German food. However, you will find this crisp wine enjoyable with any meal.
