Lemberger

Lemberger Wine Details
Price: $21.00 per bottle

Description: Once thought to be a Gamay type clone variety but now regarded as a separate variety grown in Austria. New evidence from DNA profiling possibly indicates a parentage of Gouais Blanc and an unknown variety (possibly Blauer Zierfandler). Used to produce light bodied dry, fruity red wines. This grape has many synonym names including Blue Frank, Gamé where grown in Bulgaria and also grown in Germany under the name Limberger. Tarsitano Winery Lemberger is very similar to Pinot Noir with a distinct fruit difference. A wonderful light body red with crisp berries and a soft oak finish.
