Palate: mineral, powerful, playful, elegant, multilayered

Bercher's flagship Grosse Lage Spaetburgunder from the Kesselberg parcel of the Feuerberg, described by the producer as mineral, powerful and elegant with multiple layers.

What it pairs with

  • Roast venison
    Firm tannin and full body stand up to lean, richly flavored game.
  • Braised short rib
    The wine's power and long finish suit slow-cooked, fatty beef.
  • Aged hard cheese
    A long, savory finish matches a well-aged cheese.
