Wachtenburg Dornfelder sweet winemaker's pride

The Wachtenburg Dornfelder Winzerstolz (sweet) comes from the heart of the Palatinate – from Wachenheim on the Wine Route, where Wachtenburg winemakers have been bottling the typical strengths of their region for generations. This red wine is for everyone who sees wine not as an obligation, but as a true pleasure – approachable, uncomplicated, and full of character.

In the glass, the Dornfelder displays a rich ruby ​​red color. The nose opens with delicate aromas of sweet cherry and fresh herbs , which continue on the palate. The pleasant residual sweetness is finely integrated, never heavy, and makes this wine a pleasant companion for many occasions.

It goes particularly well with:

  • light meat dishes and spicy pasta sauces
  • medium-ripe cheeses such as Gouda or Butterkäse
  • Fruit-based desserts, such as cherry tart or red berry compote
  • an uncomplicated evening without any fuss

Served chilled – at around 14 to 16 degrees Celsius – it unfolds its full potential. Anyone who wants to enjoy wine without any fuss will find exactly what they're looking for here.

The Winery

Wachtenburg Winzer

The Wachtenburg Winzer eG from Wachenheim on the German Wine Route is one of the oldest wine cooperatives in the Palatinate: founded in 1900 by 53 Palatinate winemakers, it today stands for the joint craftsmanship of 24 winemaker families who together cultivate 350 hectares.

The namesake is the striking Wachtenburg castle ruin high above Wachenheim — a landmark that is literally written on the faces of the wines of this cooperative.

The focus is on Riesling, but the range extends far into all worlds of taste with over 13 white and 11 red grape varieties. High-quality wine enjoyment at fair prices and careful handling of the vineyards — that is the self-image that connects all these winemaker families.
