Wachtenburg St. Laurent Pfalz dry

The Wachtenburg St. Laurent Pfalz dry is a red Palatinate wine that shows what the often underestimated St. Laurent grape variety is capable of: velvety fruit, lively acidity and a character that doesn't need much preparation.

In the glass, it presents typical aromas of sour cherry and elderberry , underpinned by a fresh, well-integrated acidity. The interplay of fruit and acidity is balanced – neither too opulent nor too lean. The German Agricultural Society (DLG) has awarded this wine its Gold Medal, one of the most prestigious quality accolades in German-speaking winemaking.

A wine like this goes perfectly with:

• Grilled poultry and light meat dishes
• Pasta with tomato or mushroom sauce
• Mature soft cheeses such as Camembert or Brie
• A relaxed weekday evening

Drink it slightly chilled – around 16 to 17 degrees Celsius – so that its fruitiness is best appreciated. A wine for everyone who likes red wine but isn't looking for heaviness.
