Discover the grape variety: Helfensteiner

Supple, fruity reds with a clear ruby colour, lightly marked tannins and a charming palate, showing signature aromas of cherry, raspberry, gentle spices and floral notes. Early, airy profile to drink young. Today marginal but preserved for its genetic value in Württemberg, famous for giving rise to Dornfelder (with Heroldrebe). German black variety obtained in 1931 at Weinsberg, a cross of Frühburgunder × Trollinger.
