The time has come to think of Blaufränkisch (a.k.a. Lemberger) as the poor man's Beaujolais.
This took a while to open up... but with a little patience, man, one reaps rewards. Dark brambly fruit, light-bodied, but still a brooding wine, with supple, fine tannins. Had this chilled. Rainer Schnaitmann runs his cozy winery in a suburb near Stuttgart, where he serenades his barrels to Mozart, in the glow of candlelight. Lovely wine.

Medium garnet, nose of red fruits, a bit jammy(?). Light in the mouth, raspberries, strawberries & red plum. Low tannins & lower alcohol and smooth, if cool is refreshing. A nice lighter wine- very Pinot Noirish- pairs well with chicken, pork, heartier seafoods.

My favorite unusual wine to suggest to Malbec drinkers. Easy fruit on the fruit, smoke on the back end.

Good pairing to dark meat. Not my favorite though.
