2 Comments »

A nice wine for casual meal!

Technical Data:100% Pinot Noir, Spatburgunder is the German name for Pinot Noir. Affentaler is named for the “Monkey Valley” that it’s grown in. From Germany’s Baden growing region.

Description:Light and soft summer wine. Pale red color almost pink. Delicious aromas of cherries and vanilla. A little fizzy at the beginning of the palate. Flavors of raspberry, strawberry and herbs. The finish, which is quite smooth due to the wine’s low alcohol content (12 %), carries flavors pine and a touch of bitterness, though not in an bad way.

Food Pairing & Service:Perfect with roasted pork, bratwurst, picnics, or as a cocktail. Quite unusual for a red wine, serves this one well-chilled!

Score:6/10

Suggested Retail Price:$12.49

I have an empty ’82 bottle of this wine and would like to know if this bottle is of any value.Thank you,Tammy Godfrey

  • Tammy,

    the only value to this bottle is the one you give to it, as far as I know, it has no other value whatsoever as this wine is quite distributed all around and the bottles do not have a number written on the glass. Thanks for your question!
