Lemberger ~ Yakima Valley

Lemberger ~ Yakima Valley Wine Details
Price:

Description: A delicious, productive and cold hardy grape variety from Germany and Austria that thrives in eastern Washington, which is the only place in the US it is grown. While its name doesn't exactly make it fly off the shelf, don't be put off, it is well worth a try. It is a medium bodied wine with spicy black pepper, toasty oak, and creamy cherry and blackberry flavors. Try it with grilled foods, lamb, pasta or pizza, or BBQ salmon. Bright and rambunctious when young, silky and complex with age. Aged in American oak.
