Found in a deep corner of my cellar, I thought this 14-year-old would be way, way, way over the hill. But I was wrong. Still fresh in the fruit department, no doubt helped by the scewcap closure. Not a great wine now, nor when it released, but honest Dornfelder never has pretensions to greatness. However, it can be a perfect wine for the right occasion at an inexpensive price. That’s what this one delivered.
