Lemberger Keuper 2022

Lemberger Keuper 2022 is a natural wine crafted by Sven Enderle, who is based in the Baden region in Germany but also sources some grapes from the Mosel.

Sven Enderle used to be one half of Enderle and Moll, before they decided to part ways. This red wine is made with Blaufränkisch grapes, aka Lemberger in Germany but called Blaufränkisch in Austria.
