Heid Trollinger - Lemberger Trocken

Heid Trollinger - Lemberger Trocken

Heid Trollinger - Lemberger Trocken is a unique and charming red wine from Württemberg, Germany. The wine is produced by Weingut Heid, a family business with a long history in viticulture.

The wine is a blend of two grape varieties: Trollinger and Lemberger. The Trollinger grape, also called Schiava Grossa, is a light and fruity grape. The Lemberger grape, also called Blaufränkisch, is a more powerful grape with more tannins. The grapes are grown on calcareous marl soils, which give the wine a unique minerality. The grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness. Vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks, after which the wine matures for 6 months in French oak barriques.

The nose of the Heid Trollinger - Lemberger Trocken unfolds aromas of red fruit (cherries, raspberries), berries, plums, roses, herbs (black pepper, cinnamon), vanilla and toast. The taste is powerful and elegant with ripe tannins, lively acidity and a long, persistent aftertaste. The wine is complex and has a nice balance between fruit, wood aging and minerality.
